Ingredients
8 Roma tomatoes, halved
4 cloves garlic
1 small white onion, quartered
1 jalapeno, stemmed, halved and partially seeded
1 poblano pepper, stemmed and halved
2 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 limes, zested and juiced
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
Directions
Special equipment:
Blender- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Place the tomatoes, garlic, onion, jalapeno and poblano onto a baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast until charred in spots, about 15 minutes. Set aside and allow to cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
- Transfer the roasted vegetables to a blender. Add the lime zest and juice and puree until smooth, being careful not to fill the blender too full. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the cilantro. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Goes great with chips or alongside enchiladas.
