Yield Makes 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 pound tomatillos, husked, rinsed, patted dry
1/2 large white onion, cut into 8 wedges
1 jalapeño or serrano chile, halved, seeded
2 tablespoons (or more) fresh lime juice
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler. Place tomatillos, onion, and jalapeño on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Broil, turning halfway through, until blistered, 12-15 minutes. Let cool.
  • Transfer tomatillo mixture to a blender, add 2 tablespoons lime juice, and pulse until a chunky purée forms. Season with salt and more lime juice, if desired. DO AHEAD: Salsa can be made 3 days ahead. Cover; chill.
