Ingredients
6–8 medium (about 12 ounces) tomatillos, husked, rinsed, cored, and halved
1 Serrano chile, stemmed, seeded, and halved
1 Anaheim or poblano chile, stemmed, seeded, and halved
About 1 cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
1/2 white onion, diced
1 lime, juiced
salt, to taste
Instructions
Roast Vegetables
Heat the Wolf Oven on Convection Roast mode at 400 degrees. Place the rack in position 5 and line a sheet pan with foil. Arrange the tomatillo halves and chiles on the pan, cut side down. Roast for 8–10 minutes, or until the vegetables are just starting to brown.
Blend Salsa
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 8–10 minutes. Transfer the roasted vegetables and juices to a blender or food processor and pulse until a chunky texture forms.
Finish
Add the onion, cilantro, and about 1 Tablespoon of lime juice (to taste), then pulse a few times to combine. Season with salt to taste. Serve with chips, fish tacos, or over eggs.
