A vibrant and flavorful salsa verde made with roasted Hatch green chiles and tomatillos, perfect for dipping or as a topping.

Instructions 

  • Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) if roasting the chiles yourself.
  • Place the Hatch green chiles on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally until the skins are blistered and charred.
  • Remove the chiles from the oven and place them in a bowl covered with plastic wrap to steam for about 10 minutes.
  • Once cooled, peel the skins off the chiles, remove the stems and seeds, and chop them coarsely.
  • In a blender or food processor, combine the roasted chiles, tomatillos, onion, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, salt, black pepper, cumin, and olive oil.
  • Blend until smooth or to your desired consistency.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
  • Transfer the salsa verde to a bowl and let it sit for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving.

Notes

For a spicier salsa, leave some seeds in the chiles.
