How to Make Bodacious Salsa Verde
- Preheat your broiler.
- Remove husks from 1 pound tomatillos and cut into halves.
- Place the tomatillos, 2-3 poblano green chiles (or other green chiles), and 1 medium onion, cut side down, on a foil-lined baking sheet.
- Broil for 5-7 minutes, or until skins are lightly blackened, flipping halfway through.
- Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
- Once cool enough to handle, remove the outer skins from the tomatillos.
- Roughly chop the roasted tomatillos, onions, and chiles.
- Combine the roasted vegetables, 1-2 jalapeños (seeded and minced, adjust to your spice preference), 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro, 1/4 cup chopped fresh peaches, 2 tablespoons lime juice, 1 tablespoon tequila, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper in a food processor.
- Pulse 4-5 times, then process until you reach your desired consistency (chunky or smooth).
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more lime juice for extra zing, or salt for more depth.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve with your favorite tortilla chips!
