Description

This is good on everything–eggs, chicken, steak… you name it. Toss cooked fish pieces in the sauce for some dynamite and super-simple fish tacos.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 medium onion, diced (I like sweet onions)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (7oz) can diced green chiles (or two 4oz cans), don’t drain
  • 1/2 bunch cilantro
  • juice of 1 lime
  • olive oil
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

  1. In a medium saute pan, heat a small drizzle in olive oil. Add onion and saute until tender. Add garlic and cook 1 minute more.
  2. Add sauteed veggies to a food processor or blender with green chiles and their juice, cilantro, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Puree until very smooth.

Notes

Variations:
Add zest and juice of the lime
Add 1/2 jalapeno with the onion
Add a pitted, peeled avocado with the green chiles to the food processor before pureeing.
