Report
Zesty salsa verde is a fresh-tasting salsa made with tomatillos, chiles, herbs, and other vegetables. It’s crisp, chunky, and delicious!

Ingredients
- 1 lb tomatillos
- 3 jalapeños (or Serrano for more heat)
- 2 Anaheim green chiles
- 1/2 medium white onion
- 4 cloves garlic
- 3 tbsp white vinegar
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 cup cilantro leaves
Instructions
- Peel the outer husk/skin off the tomatillos, onion and garlic. Slice onion in half, set aside. Save remaining onion half for other use. Trim stem from chiles and remove seeds if less heat preferred.
- Place tomatillos, chiles and garlic in saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook 5 minutes.
- Add the raw onion half, vinegar, salt and cilantro to a food processor, blender or Vitamix and pulse until slightly chunky.
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer tomatillos, chiles and garlic to the food processor, blender or Vitamix. Pulse until slightly chunky/smooth. Season to taste with salt. Serve with tortilla chips.
Notes
- It may appear that the salsa is thin at first after processing, but refrigerate for 2-3 hours, and due to the pectin in the tomatillos, it will thicken up. This recipe yields 3 cups of salsa.
- Thin the roasted salsa verde with chicken stock until it's the right consistency for pouring over enchiladas before baking. Works and tastes amazing!
