Green Chile Sauce

This sauce is excellent served with your favourite Mexican dish,

or use it as a base for a delicious southwestern stew. Makes 21⁄4 cups (550 ml)

11⁄2 pounds (750 g) Anaheim or green New Mexican chiles

1tablespoon (15 ml) unsalted butter

1small onion (approximately 31⁄4 ounces [92 g]), cut into 1-inch (2.5 cm) pieces

1large clove garlic, peeled and smashed

1jalapeño pepper (approximately 1⁄2 ounce [15 g]), cut in half, seeds and stem removed, cut into 1-inch (2.5 cm) pieces

1tablespoon (15 ml) unbleached all-purpose flour

11⁄2 cups (375 ml) chicken stock

3⁄4 teaspoon (4 ml) kosher salt

Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C). Place peppers on a baking sheet and roast until very dark and skin is coming away from the peppers, about 30 minutes. Place roasted peppers in a mixing bowl and cover with plastic wrap in order for the skins to loosen, about 15 minutes. Remove skin and seeds from chiles.

Place a 31⁄2-quart (3.3 L) sauté pan over medium heat and add the but- ter. When butter is hot and bubbling, add the onion, garlic and jalapeño mixture and sauté for about 4 to 5 minutes, until softened but not browned. Stir in roasted chiles and cook for another minute. Add flour and stir and cook for 2 minutes. Add stock and bring to a boil. Add salt and reduce to a simmer for about 25 minutes. Insert the Cuisinart® Smart Stick® into the saucepan, making sure the protective guard is submerged. Blend, using an up-and-down motion until ingredients are well combined, about 30 to 60 seconds, until the sauce reaches desired consistency.
