Salsa De Tomatillo

By: SABRINATEE  
"This is the 'salsa de tomatillo' that I grew up with. It can be used as a sauce for grilled chicken, fish or shrimp, as the basis for green chilaquiles (pour over tortilla chips, shredded cooked chicken and shredded Monterey Jack, then heat under the broiler), and as a dipping sauce for chips. Delicioso!"

Roasting the tomatillos results in a much thicker salsa with the added flavor from roasting. MORE
