Salsa Verde

Description
A wonderfully simple, but flavorful, tomatillo salsa. Great with grilled chicken!
Ingredients
- 1-½ pound Tomatillos
- 2 cans (4 Oz.) Diced Green Chiles
- 1 bunch Cilantro
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 2 Tablespoons Onion
- 1-½ teaspoon Salt
- 1 whole Jalapeno, If Desired
- ½ whole Avocado, Finely Diced, If Desired
Preparation
Husk and clean tomatillos, cut in half and add to bowl of food processor (or blender, in a pinch). Pulse a few times to roughly chop tomatillos and make room for remaining ingredients.
To food processor bowl, add green chiles, cilantro to taste (I chop off the leafy top of the bunch and add all but the thickest stems), garlic cloves, onion, salt and jalapeño, if using. Pulse to desired consistency.
If adding avocado, remove Salsa Verde from food processor and put in a bowl; stir in avocado.
Variation: For a wonderful variation, after husking and cleaning the tomatillos, grill them for about 10 minutes on a medium grill. Then make Salsa Verde as directed.
