Step 1
Put the tomatillos in a large pot and covering them with water. Bring it to a boil, then turn the heat down to medium-low and let them simmer until they’re tender, which should take about 10 minutes. Once they’re soft, drain them well.
Step 2
Toss the cooked tomatillos into a blender along with the avocados, sour cream, jalapeño, lime juice, garlic, cilantro, fajita seasoning, and a pinch of sea salt. Blend everything until the sauce is nice and smooth.
Step 3
For the best flavor, pop the sauce into the fridge and let it chill for at least four hours so the ingredients have time to come together. Enjoy!
