Recipe Inspiration / Receta Sugerida — Pipián Verde Auténtico

Ingredients (serves 6): 1 cup ground pumpkin seeds (pepita molida) • 8 tomatillos (roasted) • 4 garlic cloves (roasted) • 1 white onion (roasted, halved) • 2 jalapeños or serranos (roasted, deseeded if you want it mild) • 1 cup cilantro • 4 cups chicken broth • 3 tbsp lard or vegetable oil • 1 sprig hierba santa (optional, for authenticity) • Salt to taste • 4 cups shredded chicken or turkey (cooked)

Steps: 1) Roast tomatillos, garlic, onion and chiles on a hot comal until lightly charred. 2) Blend with cilantro, hierba santa (if using), and 2 cups of broth until smooth. 3) Heat lard in a large pot, fry the green sauce 5 min until darker. 4) In a separate bowl, whisk pepita molida with remaining 2 cups broth (cold or warm, NOT boiling — boiling broth makes it lumpy). 5) Slowly pour pepita mixture into the pot, whisking constantly. 6) Simmer gently 15 min — DO NOT BOIL or the pepita will separate. Stir often. 7) Add shredded chicken, simmer 10 min more. 8) Serve over warm corn tortillas with rice. The signature green sauce of central Mexican cooking — rich, creamy, and unforgettable.
