Instructions

In a large pot or dutch oven, heat olive oil until shimmery.
Add onion and garlic to pot, and soften until fragrant, making sure to stir often to prevent burning. Cook about 4-6 minutes to softened and very lightly browned.
Stir in chiles and let cook to fragrant, stirring well to mix, another 5 minutes. If adding jalapeno for heat, add to dish with green chilies.
Season well with cumin, oregano, and black pepper.
Stir in broth and raise heat to high, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium.
Let reduce and thicken, simmering for 10 minutes.
Season with cayenne and salt, tasting before adding to be sure you add just enough for your tastes.
If thickening, add 1 tbsp quick mixing flour or keto xantham slurry, whisk/stir vigorously to mix, and let cook another 5 minutes until thick.
Remove from heat and serve or store for future dishes.
