Ingredients

  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 3 tablespoon salsa verde or to taste
  • salt and pepper to taste

Salsa Verde (will just use 3 tablespoon of salsa verde for this sauce, use the rest for anything else you like! Check post for ideas.)

  • 1 lb tomatillos (about 5)
  • 1 medium onion
  • 1-2 serrano peppers
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • handful fresh cilantro
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  • In a pan over medium heat add 1 tablespoon of oil with tomatillos, onion, and peppers. Roast until charred, turning over as one side is done roasting.
    Add garlic and roast for a minute or two.
    Note:  You do not have to roast onion, garlic and peppers just tomatillos but I like to roast mine.
  • After all have been roasted remove stem from pepper and place all ingredients with cilantro in a blender. Blend until desired consistency.
    *I like mine a little chunky.
    If you would like a saucier sauce just add a tablespoon of water (chicken broth) at a time until preferred consistency is reached.
    Add salt to taste.
  • After making salsa verde combine 3 tablespoons with sour cream and stir.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve on top of steak, pork, chicken, tacos, tostadas, empanadas, potatoes, french fries, eggs, chips and whatever your hearts content.
