Ingredients

Servings
  • 10 tomatillo called tomatillo tomatoes
  • 1 jalapeño seeded
  • 1 Serrano pepper seeded
  • 1 avocado mashed
  • 3 lices white onion
  • 3 garlic peeled, cloves
  • ½ cup chicken broth or vegetable broth
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Start by heating your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit (or you can cook these veggies over an indoor or outdoor grill to get a nice char).
  2. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray it with avocado oil or olive oil. Set aside.
  3. Remove the husks from the tomatoes and wash thoroughly. Cut them into four pieces.
  4. Add them to the baking sheet along with the onion slices, whole serrano and jalapeño. (Leave the ends on the peppers as this allows the flavors to develop well.)
  5. Sprinkle them with a bit of salt and bake for about 10 minutes or until the tomatoes form a nice char. Flip the peppers and onion slices halfway through to allow them to bake evenly.
  6. Add the peppers, tomatillos, onions, garlic, avocado, chicken broth and salt to a blender and blend until smooth.
  7. Add salt to taste and serve immediately.

Notes

  • The serrano is optional for extra heat.
  • Remove the seeds also if you prefer your salsa a little less spicy.
  • The sweet and zesty flavor from the tomatillos combats the heat, so in this case, I needed a little more spice.
