How to Make Chuy's Hatch New Mexican Green Chile Sauce

  1. In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, sauté 1 medium yellow onion, chopped, in 2 tablespoons of corn oil over medium heat until softened and lightly browned (about 5-7 minutes).
  2. Add 2 cloves garlic, minced, and cook for another 2 minutes, until fragrant.
  3. Whisk in 1/4 cup all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until the mixture begins to thicken.
  4. Stir in 2 cups chopped roasted Hatch green chiles (about 4-6 chiles), 2 cups beef broth, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Mix well to combine.
  5. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency. It should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add more salt, pepper, or a pinch of cumin to your liking.
  7. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
