How to Make Delicious Salsa Verde
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1/4 cup chopped scallions, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin.
- Sauté the mixture, stirring occasionally, until the onions are tender and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Transfer the onion mixture to a blender or food processor. Add 1 cup packed fresh cilantro and 1/2 cup chicken broth. Blend until completely smooth.
- Return the pureed sauce to the skillet. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until it comes to a gentle boil.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 2 tablespoons cold water until smooth. Stir the cornstarch mixture into the simmering sauce.
- Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and returns to a boil. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 2-3 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken further.
- Season generously with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust seasoning as needed.
