Ingredients
- These measurements are approximate. You can adjust depending on which flavors you prefer to emphasize or de-emphasize based on your individual tastes.
- 2 fresh jalapenos, chopped
- half a medium brown or white onion, chopped coarsely
- 2 cups fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1.5 Tablespoons minced fresh garlic
- 1-2 Tablespoons pine nuts or other nuts
- 1-2 Tablespoons dried shredded parmesan
- 2 Tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- The juice of half a lemon
- salt and pepper to taste
- If you want this more spicy, add more peppers or chilis or try adding some tabasco. If you want it less spicey, keep the peppers and cilantro to a minimum and substitute with more basil or even some chopped spinach leaves to bulk it up and spread out the flavors.
Directions
- Place ingredients in a blender or food processor and grind to a paste, pausing to stir ingredients occasionally for even texture.
- You can use this as a sauce with pasta or add on top of grilled meat, chicken, fish, veggies, etc.
- Another cool idea is mixing one part jalapeno pesto with one part mayo and making it a different sandwich spread.
