INGREDIENTS

5 Tomatillos, husked and rinsed
1 Jalapeno Pepper
1 tsp minced Garlic
2 tbsp chopped fresh Cilantro
1/4 cup minced Onion
Juice of 1/2 Lime
1/2 tsp Salt

DIRECTIONS

1. Tomatillos have an outer husk/shell that you will first want to remove and throw away. Next the inside skin of the tomatillo is usually quite sticky so you will want to rinse them well. Tomatillos are similar in nature to a tomato, however are a little firmer, are not nearly as juicy and have a limey flavor.

2. Now to give your Salsa Verde a little kick, remove stem and seeds from your jalapeno. If you want a mild/medium salsa use only 1/2 to a whole jalapeno. If you are looking for something with a little more kick go for the gold and dice up 2 of those babies!

3. Get your Food Processor or blender out and add tomatillos, pepper and garlic process/blend until pureed but still chunky.

4. Add onions, cilantro, lime juice and salt. Mix well (not blend).
