Delicious Roasted Tomatillo Salsa Verde Recipe

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 1 lb tomatillos (husked and rinsed)
  • 2 medium jalapeños (stemmed)
  • 1 small onion (quartered)
  • 3 cloves garlic (unpeeled)
  • 1 cup fresh cilantro (chopped)
  • 1 lime juiced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Ensure the oven is fully preheated for even roasting.
  2. Prepare Vegetables

    Place tomatillos, jalapeños, onion, and garlic on a baking sheet.

    Leave the garlic unpeeled to enhance its flavor during roasting.
  3. Roast the Ingredients

    Roast in the oven for about 20-25 minutes until the tomatillos are soft and slightly charred.

    Check occasionally to avoid burning.
  4. Cool and Peel

    Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Peel the garlic.

    Letting them cool helps to handle the jalapeños safely.
  5. Blend the Salsa

    In a blender, combine roasted ingredients, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth.

    Adjust seasoning according to taste.
