When somebody like me gets tired of eating every day the same flavors, at least, I change everything (everything namely, the sauce flavor) I may have a piece of grill chicken every single day of the week but I need to change the flavor of it and my mother always told me if you change the seasoning or the sauce and the sides you are having a different meal every day (she may know if it were for her we would eat broil chicken every single meal)
With beef, pork, chicken or fish I just change my sauces, because I like my sauces with close to no salt and definitively no oils on it, I prefer to made them myself; that way I control how much salt or what kind of ingredients goes on them....... since today I was on the Mexican side I did accompany my meat with black beans salad,some carrots chips but more important with that delicious green sauce they enjoy so much in my home.
SALSA VERDE
I use;
- Tomatillos
- Cilantro
- Garlic
- Onion
- Salt
- Vinegar from the can of chiles
- Chiles serranos but you may use jalapenos
 |
| Peel the tomatillos and rinse them with cold water. |
 |
| Today I decide to roast some of the ingredients, just for 10 min under the broil. |
 |
| While that gets done, chop the cilantro. |
 |
| Ah! yes and the Chile a little just to ease the process in the blender. |
 |
| It should look better than this, I forgot it and my broil turn off by itself so it got cold and I couldn't take the picture just made, but you get the idea put all the ingredients in the blender, sometimes I like for the sauce to be a little chunky, some other times I prefer to blend it pretty good to have a more smooth kind of sauce |
 |
| This is very smooth in looks but is spicy as it gets!!!! |
Tip; if it is too spicy you may cook more tomatillos and blend them all together
If you like a more fresh flavor instead of broiling the ingredients you may just boil the tomatillos in a cup of water for a few minutes until they open a little, they blend all the ingredients together.
I use this sauce to top a few proteins or to dress a salad, but sometime when I want something more hearty I cook the meat on it..mostly fish, this sauce is very versatile.
