Equipment

  • Grill
  • Tongs
  • Food processor or blender
  • Mixing Bowl

Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 pound tomatillos husks removed and halved
  • 1 pound hatch chiles
  • 1 sweet onion medium, sliced in half
  • ½ cup cilantro chopped
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • tablespoons garlic about 4-5 cloves
  • 1 tablespoon lime zest
  • ½ tablespoon salt

Instructions
 

  • Fill a mixing bowl with ice water and set aside
  • Preheat and lightly oil the grill. Place the whole hatch chiles on the grill along with the tomatillo and onion halves cut side down. Cook until charred. Rotate the peppers until each side is charred. The onions and the peppers will take longer to cook than the tomatillos.
  • Remove from the grill and set aside.
  • Plunge the peppers into the cold water to cool them off. Remove the burned skin from the peppers.
  • Add all of the ingredients into a food processor and pulse until evenly blended but not until smooth as it should be served a little chunky.

Notes

Makes about a quart of salsa.
Can be frozen in a an air tight container for up to 3 months.
