Ingredients
  • Half pound tomatillos (approximately 4 medium tomatillos)
  • Half of one jalapeño
  • 1 small onion (or one-quarter of large onion)
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 1 Tablespoon lime juice
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro
  • 1/4 tsp salt
Directions
  1. Wash hands with soap and water.
  2. Wash tomatillos, jalapeño, and cilantro.
  3. Prepare vegetables. Remove husks of tomatillos and cut in half. For jalapeño, remove stem, seeds, and ribs. Peel and quarter onion. Peel garlic cloves. Save cilantro leaves and discard stems.
  4. Turn on oven boiler to high.  
  5. On a foil-lined baking sheet, add tomatillos cut side down, jalapeño cut side down, and onion pieces. Broil for 10 minutes. Expect vegetables to become charred – or black – on the outside.  
  6. Add all ingredients to a food processor. Puree until smooth or pulse in short bursts for a chunkier texture.
  7. Serve immediately. Add leftovers to a food-safe container with a cover and refrigerate within 2 hours. Eat within 4 days or freeze for longer storage.
