I took everyone's advice and decided to broil everything this time. I added a shallot along with my white onion and some chili powder, which really enhanced the flavor. The extra habaneros provided the heat I was looking for.
Here’s what I used:
– Tomatillos
– Tomatoes
– Fresno chili
– Serrano
– Habanero
– Garlic
– Shallot
– White onion
– Cilantro
– Lime juice
– Lemon juice
– Chili powder
– White vinegar
– a little oil before broiling and added the remnants to the blender
One major takeaway from this experience is that broiling instead of boiling made a significant difference; it felt much less harsh on the air in the house, it wasn’t so much of feeling as being sprayed directly in the face with pepper spray as it was just walking through near where someone already pepper sprayed lol.
I pulsed everything in the blender, except for the uncooked white onion and cilantro, which I added at the end. This kept those ingredients chunkier and added more texture to the mix.

This looks super spicy! I usually use 1 habenero, a few jalapeños or Serranos or both, 4-6 romas, 1 small red onion, 1 head of garlic, and 1 lime squeezed. Salt and pepper. I do broil like 445 f for 15-20 min. Just throw it all in the blender and squeeze the lime juice before pulse blending dor 2-3 minutes.
This is a lot like a salsa I make! Broiling is my favorite method for sure. My recipe doesn’t have fresnos, habaneros, or vinegar. I add jalapeños, poblanos, and cumin. Yours looks good and super spicy!
Habanero lovers get my upvote
At dinner tonight, I took the One in the plastic container and mixed it with a tropical avocado. It is amazing with the creamy avocado mixed in
