I love to try new recipes, mostly because I get stuck in a rut of making the same thing. Shane and I love Mexican food and especially Cafe Rio's medium chili verde sauce. I came across this recipe and gave it a try. We loved it! It was sweet, spicy, and healthy.
5-6 green tomatillos cut in half so they lay flat on the cookie sheet (found in produce section by all the peppers)
3 cloves of garlic
2- limes
1- jalapeno pepper seeded and cored
1- Pasilla pepper
1 bunch of cilantro cleaned and chopped into pieces
1/4 cup chopped yellow onion
1/2 cup brown sugar (you can omit this if you don't want the sweetness)
salt and pepper to taste
Place the tomatillos, garlic and peppers on a tin foil lined tray and put in oven at 350 for 12 min. Change the oven to Broil on HI and watch until blackened at the top.
Remove and put all of the ingredients in a chopper of blender. Blend until smooth. Flavors will combine more the longer you let it set. Serve over your favorite burrito. We ate it over a burrito with homemade salsa and cilantro sour cream. I will share those recipes later.
