Chipotle Grill Inspired Tomatillo-Green Chili Salsa image

From the moment I first tasted this type at Chipotle Grill I was hooked on this tangy salsa. It's not always easy for me to get to the restaurant and to be honest, they don't give you a very generous portion with your chips. I looked all over the internet to find a recipe for this one, but couldn't find it so I made my own. I created this recipe based on the ingredients list on their website, plus a few of my own touches but the result is very very close. Adjust the hot peppers if more or less heat is desired.

Yield 1 quart approximately, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 medium tomatoes, quartered
6 medium tomatillos (use 12 if they are very tiny)
1 small red onion, quartered (for a milder taste use a vidalia onion)
2 garlic cloves, pressed or minced
2 jalapeno peppers (seeded, roasted (or broiled)
2 limes, juice of
1/4-1/2 cup fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons ground cumin
1 pinch red pepper flakes (add more if more heat is desired)
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon TABASCO® brand Chipotle Pepper Sauce (more for a hotter salsa)
sea salt (to personal taste)

Steps:

  • Combine the above ingredients into a food processor. Pulse until desired consistency is reached. I gave it about 4 pulses to reach a small sized chunk, perfect for scooping with chips.
