Roasted Tomatillo Salsa
A little spicy, super fresh, and beautifully green, this salsa is tasty on its own or as a topping and in soup.
Course: Side Dish
Cuisine: Mexican
Servings: 1 cup
- 7-8 tomatillos
- 1 jalapeño
- 1 clove garlic
- ¼ cup onion diced
- ¼ cup fresh cilantro (optional)
- Lemon or lime juice to taste
Wash hands with warm, soapy water.
Preheat oven to 450°F.
Remove tomatillos from husks and rinse under running water until no longer sticky.
Place tomatillos on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes, then let cool.
While the tomatillos are cooling, cut and de-seed the jalapeño.
Add all ingredients to a blender and purée until chunky or dice all ingredients into tiny pieces and combine in a bowl.
Chill for 1 hour to let flavors blend.
