Prepare the Jalapeño
Char the jalapeño over an open flame or under a broiler until the skin is blackened and blistered, about 5-7 minutes. Once charred, place it in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap for 10 minutes to steam. After steaming, peel off the charred skin, remove the seeds, and finely chop the jalapeño.
