Copycat Taco Bell Green Sauce
This is the sauce that dreams are made of, so grab your spatula and let’s get cooking!
### Ingredients
- 1 cup tomatillos, husked and rinsed
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1-2 jalapeño peppers (adjust to taste), stemmed and seeded
- 1/4 cup diced onion
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1/4 teaspoon cumin
Instructions
- Start off by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Let’s get that energy flowing!
- Next, toss your tomatillos on a baking sheet and roast them in the oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until they’re soft and slightly charred. You want them looking like they just returned from a tropical vacation.
- Once charred, let those beauties cool down a bit. We’re not trying to burn our fingers here!
- In a blender or food processor, combine the roasted tomatillos, chopped cilantro, jalapeños, onion, garlic, salt, lime juice, and cumin. Time to blend it all together until it’s a smooth, saucy masterpiece! Adjust the seasoning if you have a zestier palate.
- Pour that fresh green goodness into a jar or serving bowl, grab some tortilla chips, and dig in!
- This sauce can be stored in the fridge for up to a week. If it lasts that long, you’re doing it wrong!
Now you’ve got yourself a bubbling cauldron of green sauce deliciousness. Feel free to experiment: drizzle it on tacos, burritos, quesadillas, or just eat it with a spoon (no judgment here!). Enjoy every scrumptious bite, and remember, the only limit is how many tacos you can handle!
