Salsa Verde

I would never claim to be a great Salsa Verde maker except my girlfriend, Roxy, told me that mine was really good!  She spent a week with me at the house last year and chicken with salsa verde was the first thing I made her.  I had to work until 7:00 that night so she might have just been really hungry, but she told me it was excellent, so I'll just run with that!

1 lb. tomatillos – about 8-9
1 bunch green onions, green part only
1 bunch cilantro
1 T. jalapeno (jarred or canned), more or less to taste
2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 T. olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
1 t. sugar
Juice of one lime

Peel and rinse tomatillos (they’ll be sticky to the touch).  Simmer tomatillos for 10 minutes until they turn a lighter green.   Put tomatillos and remaining ingredients in food processor and pulse until smooth.  Pour sauce into a pot and simmer for 20 minutes.  Serve hot or cold.
