• 2 teaspoons minced garlic
• 2 cups beef broth

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Heat oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until browned, about 5 minutes. Add garlic; cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in flour until mixture thickens. Stir in chopped chile peppers, beef broth, and salt. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until flavors combine, about 10 minutes.

Step 2

Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. 

Step 3

Place chile peppers with cut sides down onto the prepared baking sheet.

Step 4

Cook under the preheated broiler until the skin of the chile peppers has blackened and blistered, about 4 minutes per side.

Step 5

Place blackened chile peppers into a bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Allow peppers to steam as they cool, about 15 minutes. Peel and chop the chile peppers.
