🌶️ Green Chile Sauce

• 1 small onion, chopped

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 cup chicken broth (or vegetable broth)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the chiles:

   • Roast the chiles over a gas flame, under a broiler, or on a grill until skins are charred and blistered.

   • Place chiles in a sealed plastic bag or covered bowl for 10 minutes to steam (this makes peeling easier).

   • Peel off skins, then remove stems and seeds.

2. Cook aromatics:

   • In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat.

   • Sauté onion and garlic until softened and fragrant (about 3-4 minutes).

3. Blend the sauce:

   • In a blender or food processor, combine roasted chiles, sautéed onion and garlic, chicken broth, cumin, oregano, and lime juice.

   • Blend until smooth.

   • If sauce is too thick, add more broth to reach desired consistency.

4. Simmer and season:

   • Pour sauce back into skillet.

   • Simmer on low for 5-7 minutes to let flavors meld.

   • Season with salt, pepper, and optional cayenne pepper to taste.

5. Serve:

   • Use warm or room temperature.

   • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
