  • 2 Fresh Jalapeno chiles; stems
  • -removed
  • 1 cn (13-oz) tomatillos; well

 Directions

To make salsa verde, place onion, cilantro, jalapenos and tomatillos in a
blender or food processor and process until very smoothly pureed. Cut each
green chile lengthwise; open out to make a flat sheet. Set aside. Preheat
oven to 375. Melt butter in a skillet; meanwhile, combine flour, salt and
black pepper to taste in a shallow, flat-bottomed dish. Dip fillets in
flour mixture, then cook in butter, turning once, about 5 minutes per side,
or until light golden brown. Wrap each fillet in a green chile 'blanket';
arrange wrapped fillets on an ovenproof platter and top with salsa verde.
Place in oven just until salsa and chiles are hot; then serve on warmed
plates accompanied with rice. Makes 6 servings.

NOTE: See 'Parched Peppers' recipe for info on making these.
