Preparation
- Position a rack as close to the broiler as possible and heat the broiler. Arrange the tomatillos, fresh chiles (if using), onion slices, and garlic in a small, shallow baking pan. Broil, turning to ensure even cooking, until the tomatillos are soft and slightly blackened, about 10 minutes. Transfer the broiled ingredients to a blender and add the cilantro (if you’re using a canned chipotle, add it now, too). Blend until smooth.
- Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the tomatillo mixture and cook, stirring, for 2 to 3 minutes. Add 2 cups of the broth and simmer until the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 20 minutes. Taste the sauce. It should be a little tart, but it shouldn’t make your mouth pucker. If it’s too tart, add more broth and simmer until the sauce thickens again. Remove from the heat and whisk in the crème fraîche or heavy cream and the salt. Let cool slightly before making the enchiladas.

txcook13579| 07/03/2021Great sauce! Roasting all the veggies really adds a great flavor! I use jalapeños instead of serranos. I usually roast 4-6, but add them to the sauce 1 or 2 at a time, tasting for heat until the spice is right. I like this sauce better without the cream, or with only 1/4-1/2 cup cream. 3/4 cup cream is a bit overwhelming. I like to add cilantro and avocado and serve it as a green salsa.

Only thing to really plan for differently is it took a lot longer to cook down/ thicken. With all the cooking it lost some of the heat from the chilies so I added back a little red pepper flakes at the end.

Soooo good! I went light on the Serranos by only using 2, but I def could have used 3 for just a touch more heat. Other than that it was awesome!
