Ingredients
-
cooking spray
-
8 fresh tomatillos, husks removed
-
1 serrano pepper (Optional)
-
1 jalapeno pepper
-
½ medium yellow onion, quartered
-
3 cloves garlic, unpeeled
-
½ cup cilantro leaves
-
1 lime, juiced
-
1 tablespoon kosher salt
-
½ tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
-
1 cup water
Directions
-
Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler to high. Spray a baking sheet with fat-free cooking spray.
-
Cut tomatillos in half and place cut-side-down on the prepared baking sheet with serrano pepper, jalapeno pepper, onion, and garlic.
-
Broil in the preheated oven until charred, about 20 minutes, turning peppers halfway through cooking time.
-
Remove vegetables from the oven and let cool completely, about 15 minutes. Remove stems from peppers and peel garlic.
-
Combine tomatillos, serrano pepper, jalapeno pepper, onion, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, and salt in a food processor and pulse to desired consistency. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to meld flavors.
Cook's Notes:
The longer the salsa is stored in the refrigerator, the better. It will last up to 7 days refrigerated.
You can remove the seeds from the serrano pepper once cooled to make the salsa less spicy, if you'd like.
