Salsa Verde
Directions
- Preheat a charbroiler or charcoal grill to medium-high heat.
- Grill the tomatillos, onions and peppers to a char on all sides, about 8–10 minutes (note—the tomatillos, onions and peppers will char at different times). Cool the peppers, then remove the charred skins and the stems.
- Place 1 tablespoon of the oil in a small sauté pan and sauté the charred vegetables, then cool.
- Place all the tomatillos, peppers, onions, cilantro and garlic into a food processor and puree with the oregano, cumin, salt, pepper and half the amount of sugar.
- Heat the remaining oil in a large sauté pan over very high heat. When the oil is very hot, fry the salsa (being extremely careful, pour the salsa into the oil and stir and cook for 2 minutes).
- Add the chicken stock, lime juice and remaining sugar. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 8–10 minutes (salsa will thicken).
- Remove from the heat and adjust the seasoning.
