Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ pounds tomatillos, husked and quartered

  • 2 large jalapenos, halved lengthwise

  • 1 medium onion, peeled and quartered

  • ¼ cup water

  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic

  • ¼ cup firmly packed fresh cilantro

  • 1 tablespoon lime juice

  • 1 teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. Combine tomatillos, jalapenos, onion, water, and garlic in the inner pot of a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot). Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 10 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.

  2. Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Let cool for 10 minutes.

  3. Stir in cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Blend until smooth using an immersion blender.

  4. Transfer mixture to 2 pint-sized canning jars with lids. Refrigerate until cool and thickened.

Cook's Note:

You can control the heat of the salsa verde by choosing how many seeds of the jalapenos you use (if any).
