Ingredients

1 white onion, quartered

1 poblano pepper

4 jalapeno peppers

2 serrano peppers

4 cloves garlic

1 tablespoon olive oil

½ cup fresh cilantro

1 lime, juice only

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1 cup water

Directions

Add peppers, onion, and garlic to a sheet pan and drizzle with olive oil and season with kosher salt. Roast for 20-25 minutes at 500˚F. Let cool briefly.

Scrape skin off the peppers and slice them in half to remove seeds and stem. Add all ingredients to a blender along with water and blend until very smooth.

Taste the sauce and adjust to your liking. It should be salty, spicy, and bright with citrus.

Transfer sauce to a squeeze jar or bowl for serving. Store leftovers in the fridge.
