This zesty green chili sauce is perfect for adding a burst of flavor to your favorite dishes. It's easy to prepare and uses fresh ingredients for a vibrant taste.
Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Ensure the oil is hot but not smoking to avoid burning the garlic.
Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant.
Stir constantly to prevent the garlic from burning.
Add the cumin, chili powder, Anaheim chilies, and tomatillos to the saucepan.
Cut the chilies and tomatillos into smaller pieces for quicker cooking.
Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a boil.
Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook until the tomatillos are soft.
Check occasionally to ensure the mixture doesn't dry out; add a splash of water if needed.
Let the mixture cool to room temperature.
Cooling prevents steam from building up in the blender.
Blend the mixture until smooth using a blender or food processor.
Blend in batches if necessary to avoid overfilling the blender.
Serve the sauce warm or store it for later use.
Reheat gently on the stove if serving later.
