It’s Hatch chile season! One of my favorite times of year, when the local supermarkets bring out the giant drum roasters and start turning fresh green chiles from nearby Hatch, New Mexico.
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes with roasted garlic
1/2 onion, roughly chopped
1/4cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 pinch garlic powder, or to taste
Instructions
Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven’s broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil; add Hatch chile peppers.
Cook under the preheated broiler until the skin of the peppers has blackened and blistered, 5 to 8 minutes. Place blackened peppers into a bowl and tightly seal with plastic wrap. Allow peppers to steam as they cool, about 20 minutes. Remove and discard skins.
Blend roasted Hatch chile peppers, diced tomatoes, diced tomatoes with roasted garlic, onion, cilantro, and garlic powder in a food processor or blender until desired consistency is reached.
