I grew up eating this tomatillo sauce. It can be used as a sauce for grilled chicken, fish, or shrimp, a base sauce for green chilaquiles, and as a dipping sauce for chips. Delicioso!
Ingredients
- 10 tomatillos, husked
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, chopped
- 2 jalapeno peppers, chopped
- ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
- salt and pepper to taste
Directions
Step 1
Place tomatillos in a nonreactive saucepan with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil. Simmer until tomatillos soften and begin to burst, about 10 minutes.
Step 2
Drain tomatillos and place in a food processor or blender with onion, garlic, jalape?o peppers, cilantro, salt, and pepper. Blend to desired consistency.
Tips
For green chilaquiles, pour the sauce over tortilla chips, shredded cooked chicken, and shredded Monterey Jack; then heat the mixture under the broiler.
