Spicy Small Batch Salsa Verde

Spicy Small Batch Salsa Verde

My in-laws have owned and operated a Mexican restaurant in Florida for the past 40 years. This salsa is inspired by my father-in-law’s amazing salsas. I always seem to miss an ingredient when I watch him make his version (IYKYK 😉), but this is version is on repeat at our house!

Ingredients

4 medium tomatillos (or 6-7 small)

1 large clove of garlic in paper

2 serrano peppers, stems removed (or 1 jalapeno to make it less spicy)

Juice of 1/2 lime

1/2tsp kosher salt

1/4 onion minced

1/4c fresh cilantro chopped

Preparation

1. Add tomatillos, peppers, and garlic to a cast-iron skillet.

2. Over medium-high heat, roast the peppers, garlic, and tomatillos until slightly charred (about 8-10 minutes). Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly for 2 minutes.

3. Add tomatillos, peppers, lime juice, salt, and garlic with paper removed to a blender.

4. Blend salsa on low for a minute until smooth

5. Add chopped onion and cilantro, stir, and serve with your favorite foods!
