This Hatch Chile Salsa Verde is a spicy and delicious sauce that's perfect for dipping. It can help any hipster become a "dipster." An easy appetizer for game day, or you can use it as a base for a main dish like Chicharrón en Salsa Verde. Chile verde is probably Meathead's favorite, he always orders it at our favorite local Mexican restaurant. I found myself with a pork shoulder roast in the freezer and decided to make a super easy chile verde in the crockpot.

Mike's Chile Verde Salsa & Chips instructions

For the chili verde salsa.
Dethaw and drain your 1 pound bucket of Bueno Hot Hatch Green Chili and reserve juices..
Taste test your Verde and add any additions you may desire. You can also add an avacado to your Verde Salsa whereby making it, "Salsa Verde con Aguacate." It's a delicious and creamy dip that tends to tame the spices. Just know that by doing so, your salsa won't have as much of a lasting shelf life as without it..
Drain both cans of Tomatillos and discard juices..
Place all ingredients [except for reserved juices] in a blender and blend for 40 seconds..
Place in a pot with a light splash of oil and simmer for 15 minutes. Chill again before serving..
Allow ingredients to marry overnight in the fridge for best flavor. If planning to make Chili Verde con Aguacate, do not blend in avacado until ready to serve..
Authors Note: If you find your salsa has an acidic taste from the green tomatoes, simply add 1/4 tsp baking soda to your boiling salsa and stir in. Don't be alarmed if your salsa foams up and looks slightly discolored. Both will quickly dissipate. Add an additional 1/4 tsp baking soda if the taste is still too acidic for your taste..
Your reserved Hatch Chili juices should be used as a thinner instead of water..
Cut tortillas into 6 triangle pieces. Place on cookie sheet and spray tortilla triangles with Pam. Sprinkle with a seasoning of your choosing..
For the tortilla chips.
Bake at 350° for 6-7 minutes but flip tortilla chips over at 4 minutes, spray again with Pam and season. Watch carefully at 5 minutes add they can burn quickly..
If frying your tortilla chips, use room temperature tortillas and place 1 1/2" oil in a pan and fry for 2 minutes. Do not crowd chips. Drain on paper towels and season..
If you find that your chips aren't firming up after your first small batch, [either baking or frying] dry your tortillas out slightly in the microwave. Or you can leave them out overnight uncovered..

I just browned it, put it in the crockpot, added some salsa verde and some fresh jalapeño. Unlike the Hatch chiles, you can go ahead and roast the jalapeños alongside the onion and garlic and simply remove the stem, leaving the skin intact, before blending with the other ingredients. For Hatch chiles, roasting and stripping the skin makes for a smoother, richer flavor that blends best for salsa. This chile de arbol salsa recipe is made with dried chile de arbol peppers and a few other fresh flavor-building ingredients. Great for tacos, the ultimate salsa roja.
