Green Salsa Recipes
Green salsa, or salsa verde, is a tangy pantry staple typically made with tomatillos, green chiles, onion, cilantro, lime, and garlic. Its bright acidity and gentle heat make it an easy shortcut for adding fresh flavor to quick weeknight recipes.
Use green salsa as a topping for tacos, nachos, burrito bowls, grilled meats, eggs, and roasted vegetables. It also works beautifully as a simmer sauce for shredded chicken, pork, beans, enchiladas, chilaquiles, and saucy skillet dinners.
Because green salsa can vary from mild and tart to spicy and smoky, taste before adding extra lime, salt, or chile. A spoonful can wake up creamy dips, soups, rice, and slow cooker recipes without needing many additional seasonings.
