Preparation

Step 1

This bright, citrusy salsa is made with fresh tomatillos rather than tomatoes to give it a tangy, piquant flavor profile often found in Yucatan cuisine. This salsa makes a great (and healthy!) dip all on its own, served with tortilla chips and fresh veggies such as red pepper slices, jicama and radishes. It’s also a nice addition to any grilled or roasted meat, poultry or seafood.

Makes about 2 cups

Combine the chiles, onion, salt, garlic, tomatillos and cilantro in a food processor. Pulse to combine (do not over puree). Reserve.
