In this blog, I will share with you a tomatillo red chili salsa recipe that is extremely delicious.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds tomatillos
- 5 cloves garlic peeled (crushed)
- 2-3 tablespoons New Mexico red chile powder
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- Tabasco (to taste)
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375° Fahrenheit. On a baking sheet, place whole tomatillos and crushed garlic. Bake for about 25 to 30 minutes, until charred.
- Then, combine the tomatillos and garlic with the red chile powder, cumin, and lime juice in a food processor or blender. Then process until smooth.
- Then add Tabasco and process again. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- It can be served immediately or chilled until ready to eat in the refrigerator. Enjoy!
Notes
- Use fresh and quality ingredients.
- Be sure to blend everything together quickly and thoroughly before serving, so that the flavors meld together perfectly.
- Consider using chili powder or ground cumin instead of fresh chili peppers if you don't have any on hand. These spices can be more easily adjusted to your own taste.
- You can make the salsa ahead of time and store it in an airtight container for up to three days or you can serve it fresh as part of a taco or burrito bowl.
- Serve with tortilla chips, enchiladas, tacos, burritos, and more!
