Green Chili Sauce

After making chicken enchiladas with green sauce, using a canned sauce, I decided to try and make my own homemade green chili sauce. Looked at a bunch of recipes and combined them to make this one. It came out great and is much better than the canned sauce. Note: I tried using red Fresno peppers but after roasting the skins got tough and I could not remove so I threw them out.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Preheat oven to 400°F. Husk and rinse tomatillos. Cut tomatillos in half and place skin side up an oiled, foil lined baking sheet. Cut poblanos in half, remove stem and seeds, and place skin up on baking sheet. Cut jalapeños in half, remove stems (and seeds if you want less spicy), and place skin side up on baking sheet. Cut off ends of red onion, cut in quarters and place on baking sheet. Lastly add the garlic cloves, with their skin still on. I needed 2 baking sheets.

Place baking sheet(s) in oven and cook for 30 minutes until the pepper skins blister. Remove from oven and transfer peppers to a large bowl. Cover bowl with Saran Wrap and allow vegetables to steam/cool down. When cool enough peel off skin from the peppers.

Add tomatillos, peppers, and onion to a food processor. Squeeze the roasted garlic from the skin into the food processor. Add cilantro, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper to the food processor and process to blend.

Add in chicken stock and lime to the food processor and process to desired consistency. Transfer contents to a pan and simmer for 5-10 minutes. Taste and add more salt, pepper, or lime to your liking.

You are now ready to use the sauce. Enjoy!

Andean Herbs Chili Sauce Andean Herbs Chili Sauce
The Andes is home for some amazing herbs. Some of them, very strong flavored, others with a much more subtle flavor. This time we used Huacatay. This herb has an amazing strong flavor and is regularly found in neighborhood markets all around Peru.The sauce is simple, very rich and tasty; and can be used as a dipping sauce or as a side with any kind of grilled cut. Great with Poultry, Pork and Fish. However you can also do beef and it will be very nice.Enjoy! My Grilling Spot -

Sweet and spicy chilli sauce Sweet and spicy chilli sauce
This is a sweet yet spicy tomato sauce that I like to add to my chilli. You could put it on anything you wanted too really but it's a really good fit when mixed into a chilli I think. If you don't want the sweetness to it simply substitute the 9 roma tomatoes with 4 beefsteak tomatoes and leave out the brown sugar entirely. When prepping the peppers don't include the bell peppers' seeds into the mixture however, do include the habanero seeds. Ticsen Vorel -
