1
Prepare the Tomatillos
Remove the husks from the tomatillos and rinse them under cold water to remove any stickiness.
2
Roast the Vegetables
Place the tomatillos and jalapeño pepper on a baking sheet. Roast in a preheated oven at 450°F (230°C) for about 15-20 minutes until charred, turning occasionally.
3
Chop the Garlic and Onion
While the vegetables are roasting, finely chop the garlic and onion.

4
Combine Ingredients in Blender
Once the tomatillos and jalapeño are roasted and slightly cooled, add them to a blender along with the chopped garlic, onion, cilantro leaves, lime juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
5
Blend to Desired Consistency
Blend the mixture until smooth or chunky, depending on your preference. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

6
Serve
Transfer the salsa verde to a bowl and serve immediately with tortilla chips, tacos, or any of your favorite dishes.
