Directions
Liquid Green Fire Hot Sauce, This tasty sauce is a sure-(green)fire way to wake up your taste buds I consider it a health food; you can actually feel the calories melt away as you eat it And even if it isn’t actually burning calories, it’s a much better way to work up a sweat than using a stair master It can be used as a dip, a condiment, or a sauce for dishes like chile rellenos or enchiladas It is best when you put refridgerate the sauce for about an hour after preparation to allow the boiled tomatillos and peppers to cool down , Just fantastic! It seems you have convinced the owners of Chico’s Tacos in El Paso , Texas, to share their secret family recipe for their green sauce! This is the exact flavor of Chico’s sauce Chico’s is an El Paso institution and going strong after 54 years in business; in fact, Chico’s was featured on the Food Network show The Best Thing I Ever Ate This is a great sauce—thank you for sharing it! It has just the right bite and the aroma and flavor is fantastic! I left in all the seeds and did not find the sauce too hot It was just right UPDATE: still the best salsa I have EVER tried!
