Summary
Our Jalapeño Poblano Salsa Verde is a vibrant, spicy delight that's sure to elevate any dish. This zesty condiment combines the kick of jalapeño and poblano peppers with the crisp freshness of green bell pepper and red onion. A splash of lime juice adds a tangy twist, while cilantro brings a burst of herby flavor. Perfectly balanced with a pinch of salt, this salsa is ideal for those who love to add a bit of zest and a lot of flavor to their meals.
Ingredients
Directions
Turn the oven on to broil.
Place poblano peppers and green bell pepper cut sides down on a baking sheet.
Broil for 10 minutes or until blistered on top. Remove from the oven and let cool before removing the skins of the peppers. Discard skins.
Add all ingredients to a food processor and blend until mostly smooth, although you may have some pieces of pepper or cilantro mixed in, and that’s okay unless you like it super smooth.
Taste your salsa for additional ingredients of choice.
