Baja Fresh Tomatillo Salsa Verde

Ingredients:

1 � pounds fresh tomatillo, husked
� fresh jalapeno pepper, stems removed
1 fresh poblano chili, stemmed and seeds removed
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
8 tablespoons fresh cilantro (stems removed) chopped
1 � tablespoons salt
1 � tablespoon sugar
� cup cold water
tortilla chips

Instructions:

Pull the husks from the tomatillos and wash the tomatillos under cool running water until they no longer feel sticky. Cut the tomatillos into quarters and place in a blender or a food processor (fitted with the metal blade).

Roughly chop the jalapeno and poblano chili and add to the tomatillos.

Add the remaining ingredients (lime juice, cilantro, salt, sugar and water).

Process to a coarse puree, and then scrape into a serving dish. Serve with your favorite tortilla chips (or on top of chicken or steak tacos). Always stir salsa prior to serving.

*** If making ahead of time, store it in a container with a lid and place it in refrigerator. The salsa keeps in the refrigerator for 1 day only.
