This is the 'salsa de tomatillo' that I grew up with. It can be used as a sauce for grilled chicken, fish or shrimp, as the basis for green chilaquiles (pour over tortilla chips, shredded cooked chicken and shredded Monterey Jack, then heat under the broiler), and as a dipping sauce for chips. Delicioso!

Provided by cervantesbrandi

Categories     Mexican

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 red snapper steaks
4 tablespoons oil
3 jalapenos (sliced lenghwise in 8ths, stem removed)
6 roma tomatoes (roughly chopped)
1 medium white onion (roughly chopped)
6 garlic cloves (minced)
2 cups water
1/2 fish bouillon cube
salt and pepper
1 lime

Steps:

  • Start by heating the 4 tbsp of oil in a large pot on medium high heat.
  • Sprinkle each steak with salt and pepper and place them in the hot oil. As the fish is sauteing squeeze small amounts of lime juice onto each piece. This will keep the fish skin from becoming slimy during the cooking process.
  • Once the fish has sauteed on one side for 4 minutes carefully turn each piece onto the other side and saute an additional 2 minutes. Continue until all sides have been cooked.
  • Remove the fish onto a platter and set aside. Add the garlic, onions, and jalapenos into the oil that the fish cooked inches Saute the mixture for 5 minutes or until the onion has softened and translucent.
  • Next, add the tomatoes and saute for an additional 5 minutes. Add the water and fish flavored bouillon cube. Cover and bring to a boil. Let the tomatoes boil for 10 minutes and then turn the heat down to medium low.
  • Add the pieces of fish back into the pot and cover. Cook on medium low (low boil) for an additional 15 minutes. The dish is fully cooked once the fish flakes easily off of the bones.
  • Enjoy!
  • Note; If you love cilantro like I do you can dice up a handful and add it into the pot the last 2 minutes of cooking.

Tips:

  • Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your salsa will depend on the quality of your tomatoes. Look for tomatoes that are ripe, juicy, and have a deep red color. Roma tomatoes are a good choice for salsa because they have a meaty texture and fewer seeds.
  • Roast your tomatoes: Roasting tomatoes brings out their natural sweetness and flavor. You can roast them in the oven or on the stovetop. If you're roasting them in the oven, cut them in half and toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast them at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-30 minutes, or until they are slightly charred and softened.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your salsa will taste. Use fresh cilantro, onion, garlic, and lime juice. If you can't find fresh cilantro, you can use dried cilantro, but it won't have the same flavor.
  • Don't over-process your salsa: Salsa should have a chunky texture. If you over-process it, it will become too smooth and lose its flavor. Pulse the ingredients in a food processor or blender until they are combined, but not pureed.
  • Taste your salsa and adjust the seasonings: Once you've made your salsa, taste it and adjust the seasonings to your liking. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or lime juice. You can also add other ingredients, such as diced avocado, chopped jalapeño, or roasted corn.

Conclusion:

Salsa is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of dishes. It's a great way to add flavor to tacos, burritos, nachos, and enchiladas. It can also be used as a dip for chips or vegetables. With so many different variations, there's sure to be a salsa recipe that everyone will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy way to add flavor to your meal, try making a batch of homemade salsa. You won't be disappointed!
