CHIPOTLE GRILL INSPIRED TOMATILLO-GREEN CHILI SALSA
From the moment I first tasted this type at Chipotle Grill I was hooked on this tangy salsa. It's not always easy for me to get to the restaurant and to be honest, they don't give you a very generous portion with your chips. I looked all over the internet to find a recipe for this one, but couldn't find it so I made my own. I created this recipe based on the ingredients list on their website, plus a few of my own touches but the result is very very close. Adjust the hot peppers if more or less heat is desired.

Steps:
- Mix together garlic, brown sugar, chili powder, pepper, salt, and cumin until blended. Spread a heavy coating of the spice blend over both sides of flank steak and place in a large glass baking dish. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 4 to 8 hours.
- Preheat one side of an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove steak from the refrigerator and brush lightly with 1 tablespoon oil.
- Place steak on the hot side of the grill, cover, and cook for 5 minutes. Flip steak, cover, and cook another 5 minutes. Move steak to to cooler side of the grill, cover, and cook until desired doneness, about 2 to 5 minutes longer. Remove from the grill and let rest for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spread tomatillos and garlic cloves on a baking sheet and drizzle lightly with 1 tablespoon oil.
- Roast in the preheated oven until vegetables are soft, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove vegetables from the oven and cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
- Scoop tomatillos and garlic into the bowl of a food processor or blender. Add chipotle peppers and remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil; pulse until blended but still slightly chunky. Pour into a serving dish and let cool.
- Slice flank steak thinly against the grain and serve with salsa.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe tomatillos. Look for tomatillos that are firm and have a bright green color.
- Roast the tomatillos and poblano peppers before blending them. This will give the salsa a smoky, roasted flavor.
- Use a high-powered blender or food processor to get a smooth salsa. If you don't have a blender or food processor, you can chop the ingredients by hand, but it will take longer.
- Taste the salsa and adjust the seasonings to your liking. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or lime juice.
- Store the salsa in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
