Cafe Rio Enchilada Sauce (Medium)

I found this recipe on pinterest and it is delicious! just as good as cafe rio. This also makes a big batch so feel free to half it or make the whole batch and freeze the extra.

2-3 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil

1 Large onion, minced (I used half a jumbo onion)

5-6 cloves of garlic

2-3 green bell peppers, chopped

1-2 jalapenos, seeded and ribs removed and chopped

1-1.5 lb tomatillos, husked and quartered

1/2 bunch fresh cilantro chopped coarsly

1 1/2 tsp kosher salt

1/4 tsp black pepper

1 1/2 tsp cumin

4 cups chicken broth

2-3 Tbsp sugar

In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Saute garlic and onions until tender and fragrant.

While onions are cooking, combine tomatillos, green bell peppers, jalapenos, and cilantro in your blender. Process until smooth. You may have to blend in batches or add some chicken broth so that it's blendable.

Pour the tomatillo mixture over the onions and garlic and add the chicken broth, salt and pepper, and cumin. Simmer 15 min to 1 hour depending on the consistency you want.
