Roasted Salsa Verde Version One
2 poblano peppers (remove steam and seeds, cut lengthwise into quarters)
2 jalapeño peppers (remove stem and seeds, cut lengthwise in half’s)
1 pound tomatillos (remove skins and cut in half)
1 bunch cilantro (trim off 1/4 of stem ends)
1 Tablespoon dried Mexican oregano
Salt and black pepper to taste
2 Tablespoons olive oil
Chicken broth for thinning salsa
Place all your cut peppers and tomatillos in an air fryer. Drizzle with Olive oil and roast at 400 degrees for about 20-30 minutes or until just starting to char peppers. Half way through roasting, shake the contents.
Pour contents, including all juices that are at the bottom of your air fryer into a blender of your choice. Add cilantro, oregano, salt and black pepper and blend until smooth like a paste. Add 1 Tablespoon at a time of chicken broth and blend until it’s the consistently you prefer.
This is a great salsa for chips, burritos, posole, tacos, eggs, etc.

Looks so gooddd!
Great idea!
When I started reddit I didn’t know this sub existed (7ish years ago). I made a smoothie with peppers and posted it on r/smoothies and everyone called it a salsa. I finally found my people.
Wow. I hadn’t thought to use an air fryer. I know what I’m trying next!!
