Salsa Verde


We went to Epcot last weekend and ate in Mexico, and I was inspried by the salsa verde sauce and so I gave it a try. This is my first attempt at the Salsa Verde and I do think it turned out pretty well!  I may make a few minor adjustments next time, but for now, here goes: 

1 pound tomatillos
1/2 cup chopped onion
2 cloves garlic minced
1 jalepeno pepper chopped
1 Teaspoon Cilantro
1/2 teaspoon Cumin
1/2 teaspoon Oregano
1 teaspoon Salt
Black Pepper
1 to 1 1/2 cup chicken stock
juice from 1 and 1/2 limes

Peel, wash and chop tomatillos. Place in a medium pot to cook on the stove.  Add in the onion, garlic and jalepeno and spices. Pour in the chicken stock.  Mine was a tiny bit runny so would decrease the liquid next time.  Pring to a boil and then turn down and simmer for about 15 minutes. Take off the heat and use a boat motor to blend everything up. The real name is some kind of immersable blender type thing, we call it a boat motor.  Or you could use a blender. Just find something to blend everything up. Add in the lime juice, and cool. It tastes better once it has cooled down.  This too seemed to be addictive. We ate it with chips and served it with out tacos the other night.
