Ingredients
- 2 ripe tomatillos with their husks carefully taken off
- 1 garlic clove, without its skin
- a bit of water as required
- 2 chipotle peppers soaked in adobo sauce
- a pinch of salt
Step 1
In a saucepan, immerse the tomatillos and garlic in water. Allow them to gently simmer over medium-low heat until the tomatillos turn tender and lose their translucency, which should take around 10 minutes.
Step 2
Next, transfer this cooked mixture into an electric blender, adding some chipotle peppers for that extra kick. Blend everything together along with a splash of the reserved cooking liquid until you achieve your preferred thickness. Don't forget to season it with a pinch of salt to enhance the flavors.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Cool and Dry: Keep your chipotle tomatillo sauce stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve its vibrant flavors.
- 2. Refrigerate After Opening: Once opened, store the sauce in the refrigerator to maintain its freshness and keep it ready for your next sizzling meal.
