• Broil in the preheated oven until charred, about 20 minutes, turning peppers halfway through cooking time.
• Remove vegetables from the oven and let cool completely, about 15 minutes. Remove stems from peppers and peel garlic.
• Combine tomatillos, serrano pepper, jalapeno pepper, onion, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, and salt in a food processor and pulse to desired consistency. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to meld flavors.

ROASTED TOMATILLO SALSA

Steps:

• Peel the garlic and remove the stems and seeds from the jalapenos. Add the roasted vegetables to the bowl of a food processor and pulse until still slightly chunky but well combined. Add the cilantro, lime juice and 1 teaspoon salt and pulse until incorporated.

Don't remove the charred parts of the tomatillos or the peppers. They add a really nice flavor.
