1-First, preheat your broiler with the rack about 4 inches below the heat source. This step ensures even roasting and helps reduce the tomatillos’ natural sourness. Place the tomatillos and jalapeños on a rimmed baking sheet and broil for about 5 minutes until they blacken in spots.

2-Flip them and broil for another 4 to 6 minutes until the tomatillos are blistered and juicy. Then, in a food processor or blender, combine the chopped white onion, fresh cilantro leaves, lime juice, and salt. Add the roasted tomatillos and peppers along with their juices, and pulse until mostly smooth, scraping the sides as needed.

3-Prepare ingredients: Husk and rinse 1 ½ pounds of tomatillos, stem 1-2 jalapeños, chop ½ cup white onion, and measure ¼ cup cilantro.

4-Roast: Broil tomatillos and jalapeños on a baking sheet for 5 minutes, flip, and broil 4-6 more minutes.

5-Blend: Combine onion, cilantro, lime juice, and salt in a blender, then add roasted items and pulse to smooth texture.

6-Adjust: Taste and add more lime juice or salt as needed for balance.

7-Serve: Let it cool and enjoy, or store for later use.
