15-20 tomatillos, sliced in half
4 jalapeños, top stem cut off
5 whole garlic gloves, peeled
1/2 onion, chopped
Juice of 1 lime
1/4 cup fresh cilantro
salt & pepper

Instructions

Turn your oven broiler on high and line a baking sheet with foil.
Arrange the tomatillos (cut side down), jalapeños, and garlic cloves on the foil and place about 4" under the broiler. Let cook for 4-6 minutes, or until the skins on the tomatillos are starting to blacken.
Remove from the heat and transfer (along with all juices on the foil) to a blender. Add the onion, lime juice, and cilantro. Blend until mostly smooth, and add salt & pepper to taste.
