Makes 2 1 ⁄
4
cups
1 1 ⁄
2
pounds Anaheim or green New Mexican chiles
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 small onion (approximately 3 1 ⁄
4
ounces),
cut into 1-inch pieces
1 large clove garlic, peeled and smashed
1 jalapeño pepper (approximately 1 ⁄
2

seeds and stem removed, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 tablespoon unbleached all-purpose flour
1 1 ⁄
2
cups chicken stock
3 ⁄
4
teaspoon kosher salt
Preheat oven to 450°F. Place peppers on a baking sheet and roast until
very dark and skin is coming away from the peppers, about 30 minutes.
Place roasted peppers in a mixing bowl and cover with plastic wrap in
order for the skins to loosen, about 15 minutes. Remove skin and seeds
from chiles.
Place a 3 1 ⁄
2
-quart sauté pan over medium heat and add the butter.
When butter is hot and bubbling, add the onion, garlic and jalapeño
mixture and sauté for about 4 to 5 minutes, until softened but not
browned. Stir in roasted chiles and cook for another minute. Add flour
and stir and cook for 2 minutes. Add stock and bring to a boil. Add salt
and reduce to a simmer for about 25 minutes. Insert the Cuisinart ®
Smart Stick ® into the saucepan, making sure the protective guard is
submerged. Blend, using an up-and-down motion until ingredients are
well combined, about 30 to 60 seconds, until the sauce reaches desired
consistency.
