GREEN ONION TOMATILLO CREAM SAUCE WITH CHICKEN - PASTA - POTATO



Green Onion Tomatillo Cream Sauce With Chicken - Pasta - Potato image

I love to cook with tomatillos! They have a unique sharp citrus flavor similiar to a lime. I can tame it down with sugar or heighten the flavor with lime zest. This recipe is low cost and can feed many. I love it with bow tie pasta. All the minced pieces in the sauce stick to the bow ties. I had to feed 8 on a moments notice and I grabbed these ingredients....it worked! Serve with fruit. This could easily be adapted for vegetarian meal without the chicken. If you half the recipe cut the onions,tomatillo and chicken in half, nothing else. Leave the liquid and spices as is.

Categories     condiment

Time 1h55m

Yield about 8 cups

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 poblano peppers, halved, seeded and deveined
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
10 tomatillos, husked and rinsed under cool water
10 tomatillos, husked and rinsed under cool water
6 cups vegetable broth
1 medium-ripe pear, peeled and cored
One 14-ounce can green chiles
1/2 bunch fresh cilantro, tough ends discarded
1 1/2 teaspoons ground white pepper
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Place the poblano halves on a baking sheet and roast until they begin to shrivel, about 20 minutes. Transfer the roasted poblanos to a food processor and puree until smooth.
  • Heat the butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, reduce the heat to medium, and cook, stirring often, until the onion is soft and golden, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the onion to a plate and set aside to cool.
  • Bring a medium saucepan of water to a simmer. Add the tomatillos and blanch them until they turn vibrant in color and the center of the largest one is easily pierced with a fork, about 5 minutes. Drain the tomatillos in a fine-mesh sieve then run them under cold water to cool. Transfer the blanched tomatillos to the food processor bowl with the poblano puree, add the cooled onion, pears, green chiles, cilantro, and white pepper and process until smooth.
  • Bring the vegetable broth to a simmer in a saucepan. Add the poblano-tomatillo puree, cream and sour cream and reduce the heat to medium-low. Gently simmer the sauce, stirring often, until light and creamy, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Use an immersion blender to blend until smooth (or blend the sauce in batches using a standard blender). The sauce can be refrigerated for up to 4 days or frozen for up to 4 months.
