Chuy's Hatch Green Chile Salsa

Miss Annie's Note:

This is another great recipe from the Chuy's restaurant chain. It is really wonderful. This makes about 2 quarts. I would guess that it will keep in the refrigerator for a couple of weeks, or more.

Directions:

1. Put all ingredients, except salt and lime juice, in a large kettle and bring to a light boil.
2. Cook for 30 minutes.
3. Strain liquid into a large bowl.
4. Place solid ingredients in a blender.
5. Add 1/2 of the strained liquid (about 3 cups) and blend until smooth.

Oh what I would do for Hatch Chili peppers roasted in a tortilla right now! Yum! Thank you for this fab recipe! I will use it most definitely next season! Jelly :)

I have been eating this by the spoonful. It is so delicious. My yield was more like 5 cups instead of the 8 mentioned as I think I made it a little thicker than the recipe intended. Definitely a winner in this house. Thanks MIss Annie for sharing.
