Ingredients
To make this fresh and spicy jalapeño green sauce, you'll need:
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 fresh jalapeños, sliced
- 1 large garlic clove
- 1 bunch fresh coriander
- 1 bunch fresh parsley
- ½ cup olive oil
How to Make Spicy Jalapeño Green Sauce
Step 1: Prepare your ingredients
Slice the jalapeños and peel the garlic clove. Wash the fresh coriander and parsley thoroughly, then shake off any excess water. For a milder sauce, remove the jalapeño seeds and membranes before blending.
Step 2: Add everything to your blender
Place the lemon juice, kosher salt, sliced jalapeños, garlic, fresh coriander, parsley and olive oil into a blender or food processor.
Step 3: Blend until smooth
Blend all the ingredients until they form an even, vibrant green consistency. Scrape down the sides of the blender if needed to ensure everything is evenly combined.
Step 4: Taste and adjust
Give your sauce a taste. Add a little extra lemon juice for more tang, a pinch of salt if needed, or another jalapeño if you prefer a hotter sauce.
Step 5: Serve and enjoy
Transfer your freshly blended jalapeño green sauce to a serving bowl and enjoy immediately, or refrigerate it until you're ready to serve.
