Roasted Tomatillo Salsa Recipe
Roasted Tomatillo Salsa RecipeTomatillos and cilantro are bursting out of my CSA, along with carrots, cucumbers, tomatoes, and celery! It may sound complicated to make salsa verde but it couldn’t be simpler: broil up some tomatillos and blend with a few other ingredients. Serve it with all those farm fresh veggies for the ultimate appetizer, or use it to make a One Pan Salsa Verde Chicken and Rice dish, in some enchiladas or scooped up with some tortillas.
Ingredients Needed
- Ripe Tomatillos
- Jalapeño
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
