How to cook:

If your tomatillos still have the husk on them, remove those first and give them a good rinse. Set aside.
Skillet
Heat a seasoned cast-iron skillet to just over medium. If your pan isn't well seasoned, rub it with a little olive oil before heating up.
Once the skillet is hot, place the tomatillos, chiles, and onion in a single layer on the pan and sear for about 3-4 minutes. Flip and cook until each side is charred and the veggies are softened.
Oven
Turn your oven to broil on high, and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Then, spread the chiles, onion, and tomatillos out evenly on the foil. Broil for 10 minutes, flipping halfway.
Boil
If you don't have access to a cast-iron skillet or oven, bring the tomatillos, chiles, and onions to a boil in a large pot. Once boiling, reduce the heat to simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the veggies are soft.
In the meantime, peel your garlic and roughly chop the cilantro. Add these to a food processor or blender along with the lime juice and vegetable broth (optional: add in a pinch of Mexican oregano and cumin for extra flavor).
Once the tomatillos, onions, and chiles appear blackened and soft, remove them from heat and de-stem and seed the chiles (leave them in for extra heat). Add the cooked veggies to the rest of the ingredients in your blender.
Blend on medium-high until all ingredients are mixed together to your preference, about 1 minute (more time for a smoother consistency or less for a chunkier texture). If it needs more liquid, add in extra vegetable broth 1-2 tbsp at a time.
Season
Lastly, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a saucepan over medium-high. Slowly pour the salsa in and bring it to a low boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes.
Once your sauce is done reducing, season with salt to taste and serve immediately over enchiladas or transfer it to a container to store in your fridge.
