- Peel, rinse and dry the tomatillos. Slice them in half and set them onto a large lined baking sheet.
- Slice 1 jalapeno pepper in half and set it on the baking sheet with the tomatillos, skin sides up.
- Roast the tomatillos and jalapeno pepper at 425 degrees F. for 15 minutes, or until the tomatillos begin to char slightly. The skins will darken.
- Remove and transfer to a food processor or blender.
- Add the remaining ingredients and process until smooth. Adjust for salt and serve. Or, refrigerate in a sealed container to let the flavors mingle. Great with tortilla chips!
