Guacamole will always have a place in my heart but I am currently OBSESSED with salsa verde guacamole! It is so bright and fresh and it stays green for days. Perfect to make ahead for parties or gatherings and the absolute most amazing side dish for summer!
Watch me bring this salsa (along with two of my other favorite side dishes) together on The Cook’s Channel!
Salsa Verde Guacamole
Ingredients
- 6–7 tomatillos, husked and washed
- 1 jalapeño, stem removed (this is for a medium salsa, for mild, remove seeds. For spicy add 2 jalapeños)
- 1/2 white onion, roughly chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro
- 2 ripe avocados
- Juice from two limes
- 3 tsp kosher salt
Instructions
-
Place the tomatillos and jalapeño on a jelly roll pan lined with foil. Place under the broil and broil until black spots appear (about 5-7 minutes). Flip and broil for an additional 5-7 minutes. Remove and let cool.
-
In a blender or food processor add the white onion through the salt along with the tomatillos and jalapeño. Blend until combined into a salsa mixture (do not fully close up the blender as the tomatillos and jalapeño are still warm. Keep the chute open and loosely place a towel over the opening).
-
Taste and add any additional lime juice or salt. Refrigerate!
