Ingredients:
4 oz. fresh hot green chiles (about 4 medium jalapenos, 16 medium serranos, 2 medium-hot banana/Hungarian wax or 12 medium green or yello-orange habaneros--really any small hot chile.)
4 garlic cloves, peeled
2 tbs. fresh lime juice
Salt to taste

Instructions:
1. Cut the stems off the chiles. Slice them lengthwise. Seed them for a milder sauce -- moderate the hotness with the amount of seeds.

2. Lay the chiles, cut side down, on a sheet pan and add the garlic. Broil under a broiler until starting to turn brown and bubble.

3. Scrape into a mini food processor, add the lime juice and process till smooth. Add the salt and taste for seasoning. Add a little water if needed to get to a "spoonable" consistency.

4. Cover and refrigerate for up to 5 days.
