Recipe Introduction


This tart, mildly spicy, and bright green salsa is so delicious that you might want to double the recipe to have extra on hand.





List of Ingredients



• 8 oz small tomatillos (about 8), husked, rinsed
  
• 1 large jalapeno chile, stemmed
  
• 10 large fresh mint leaves
  
• 2 T fresh lime juice
  
• 1/4 cup finely chopped white onion
  






Instructions



1. Preheat broiler. Line baking sheet with aluminum foil.
   
2. Arrange tomatillos and jalapeno chile on prepared baking sheet. Broil until tomatillos and jalapeno chile are soft and blackened in spots, about 5 minutes per side.
   
3. Cool; transfer tomatillos, jalapeno chile, and any juices on baking sheet to blender. Add fresh mint and lime juice; blend to coarse puree.
   
4. Transfer mixture to bowl; mix in chopped onion. Season salsa with salt.
