Ingredients:
– 1 pound fresh tomatillos, husked and rinsed

– 1 small onion, quartered
– 2 cloves garlic, peeled
– 1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves

Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
2. Place the tomatillos, chiles, onion, and garlic on the prepared baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the tomatillos are soft and have started to char.
3. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the vegetables cool for a few minutes.
4. Transfer the roasted vegetables to a blender or food processor. Add the cilantro, lime juice, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth.
5. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or lime juice as needed.
6. Transfer the salsa verde to a bowl and let it cool to room temperature. You can serve it immediately or refrigerate it for later use. The flavors will develop even more after a few hours in the fridge.
