If you’ve never had the opportunity to cook with tomatillos before, you’re in for a treat. Tomatillos are members of the tomato family and originated in Mexico. Unlike most tomatoes, they have a papery husk around the outside and their flavour is more acidic and less sweet, which makes tomatillos perfect for salsas, sauces, and roasting in the oven. Roasting the tomatillo provides amazing flavor for the base of the salsa verde, which really gets punched up with the heat of the jalapeño and the brightness of the lime juice.

If you’re anything like us, taco night is often a big event—everyone in the house is excited to dig in and chow down. Since this dish is a total crowd-pleaser even for the pickiest of eaters, it’s a fun touch to set up an assembly line of ingredients and let everyone pick their own toppings. Pile ‘em high and enjoy!
