I made it exactly as stated and thought the cilantro was overpowering. I like the idea of roasting so I will try it with another salsa recipe.

Made as the recipe states, and it was amazing over chicken breast. Tastes like summer, with just the right amount of heat. I did not de-seed the jalapenos or tomatillos, just tossed them in the blender after a rough shop, and did not need to add water.

This recipe was fantastic, and it carried with it a nice KICK! I roasted the tomatillos, garlic, jalapeno and also added an onion for about 20 minutes and then I broiled them. Then mixed in the blender and added some slat and lime juice. This will be good with chips and also enchiladas.

This is easy and so tasty. Leave the seeds in the jalapenos for more "kick." Serve over grilled pork tenderloin or just with lots of chips and sliced vegetables.

This salsa goes great in chilaquiles. After reading the reviews I roasted the ingredients in a 450 degree oven and then broiled. I too added onion. I also added fresh lime juice. It was very spicy, but that's how we like it!!

Excellent! Roasting all the ingredients really makes the difference. I used three different types of mild peppers in addition to what was called for in the recipe, and added some cumin and cinnamon. Really worth the time and it keeps really well.

The reviewer gave this recipe 3 stars. This recipe averages a 4.51 star rating.

I normally love the flavor that roasting and charring gives, and love tomatillo salsa, so I was really excited to try this one. The first time I made it in the oven both roasting and then broiling. The flavor was good but 2 dimensional. I added some onion and what I thought was cumin but turned out to be coriander. OOPS! The second time I made it I used the cumin, and it was much better, but still not great. This salsa is really lacking something. It's almost like the carmelization from roasting ruined it rather than improved it.

This was good but since we don't like it to hot I only used 1 jal. pepper. I also followed others advice and used some white onion.

Hoo! This is HOT! (But my jalapenos were huge.) Very nice tangy, smoky flavor, and so easy to prepare. Next time I'll add just a bit of onion, and I wouldn't mind a touch more garlic. This is perfect with avocado and goat cheese quesadillas.

I made this with one jalapeno, and I broiled some diced yellow onion along with the other ingredients. I also used Adobo seasoning instead of salt. Turned out great. Thanks!

Delicious flavor (I passed the recipe along to several friends), but INCREDIBLY spicy. Blending the jalapenos releases more of the capsaicin (the hot stuff), so if you are not going to leave the peppers chunky, you might want to cut down.

I loved this and so did my family. I used 3 jalapenos as the ones I had weren't particularly hot. I didn't have any cilantro in the house so I didn't use any and it was still great. Fantastic flavor.

This salsa was excellent after I followed suggestions by another reviewer to cook off the raw taste from the salsa. I cooked the salsa for 5 mins on med to med low heat.I also added lime juice and some ground cumin to add a little more smoke to the flavor. I will make again for sure.
