3 cloves garlic

½ cup diced white onion

1 jalapeno, deseeded

Directions

Make the pickled red onions

  1. Add the sliced red onions to a mason jar or heat proof container.
  2. Heat the vinegar, sugar, and salt in a microwave for 30 seconds or until the mixture is warm enough to dissolve the salt and sugar. Stir to dissolve.

Make the salsa verde

  1. Heat the oven broiler.
  2. Line a sheet tray with aluminum foil. Husk the tomatillos, if necessary, and place them on the lined sheet tray.
  3. Broil the tomatillos until they are blistered.
  4. Place the roast tomatillo, garlic, onion, jalapeno, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and water in a blender and process until mixture is finely chopped.
  5. Serve or store in refrigerator until ready.

Assemble
