Roasted Tomatillo Spinach Sauce with Zucchini Linguine
from Joy of Cooking by Irma Rombauer
2 lbs. tomatillos, husked and rinsed
2 medium poblano or Anaheim peppers, seeded
1 large onion, quartered
12 cloves garlic
1 1/4 cups coarsely chopped fresh spinach, washed and dried
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro
3/4 cup chicken stock
salt and ground pepper, to taste
1 package of Rossi Pasta Zucchini Linguine
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Oil a baking pan. Place tomatillos, peppers, onion and garlic on a single layer on the pan. Roast until soft and golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Place the roasted vegetables, including the juices, in a blender or food processor along with the spinach, cilantro, chicken stock and salt and pepper. Pulse until smooth, adding more stock if necessary to make a medium-bodied sauce. Reheat gently in a small saucepan and serve immediately or store, covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
