NINFA'S GREEN SAUCE
This green sauce is popular in many Mexican restaurants around Houston. Ninfa's was one of the first to serve this sauce. The recipe has been printed in the Houston Chronicle several times. I've adapted it slightly. Mama Ninfa Rodriquez Laurenzo opened the original Ninfa's Restaurant on Navigation street in 1973. Her food differed from the usual Tex-Mex restaurants in town. She seemed to achieve fame in the kitchen overnight. Some of her famous guests included George Bush, Michael Douglas, John Travolta, Rock Hudson, and Aerosmith! Mama Ninfa lost her battle with cancer last year, but her much loved Mexican food lives on. The original Ninfa's is still there, and there are several other locations here in Houston as well.

Steps:
- In a large skillet, saute rice with butter or margarine. Add chicken broth and simmer over low heat for 15 to 20 minutes, or until rice is cooked and tender. Let cool.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Warm tortillas in the microwave for 2 minutes and spread another 1/4 cup sauce in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Place a little of the chicken mixture on each tortilla and roll up. Place filled tortillas (as many as will fit) in the baking dish. Sprinkle with 1/4 pound shredded cheese and top with any remaining sauce, pouring evenly over all. (Freeze remaining tortillas for future green sauce enchiladas!)
- Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 minutes.

Steps:
- In a food processor or blender, combine all of the ingredients. Blend until the cilantro has broken into very tiny pieces and the sauce is green and mostly smooth (no matter how long you blend it, it will still have some texture to it).
- Taste, and adjust if necessary. This sauce is intentionally bold and spicy and I usually think it's just right as written. However, if the flavor is too overwhelming, blend in 1 tablespoon of olive oil while running the food processor. If it's not spicy enough, add some of the reserved jalapeño seeds and blend again. If it doesn't have enough zip, add another tablespoon of lime juice and/or a pinch of salt.
- Aji verde keeps well in the refrigerator, covered, for about 1 week.

Steps:
- Salt and pepper the fish and set aside while you chop the vegetables and herbs.
- Set a cooling rack over a baking sheet and put that in the oven. Set the oven to 200°F.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a small pan and gently cook the onion until it is golden and translucent. Don't brown it. Turn off the heat and let everything sit for now.
- Heat the rest of the olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. While it is heating up, dust the fish with flour. Press the flour in, then shake off the excess. Fry the fish in the olive oil until nicely browned on both sides, about four minutes per side. Move the fish to the rack in the oven as it browns.
- When the fish is ready, move the onion and as much of the oil as you can scrape out of the little pan into the pan you cooked the fish in. Let this heat up, adding the garlic now. Let all this cook a minute or two.
- Pour in the wine, bring it to a boil and let it roll a minute or two, then pour in the fish stock. Bring this to a boil and let it cook down for a couple minutes. Taste it for salt and add some if needed. Add all the herbs and cayenne and stir to combine. Let this cook 1 minute, then turn off the heat. Add black pepper and lemon juice to taste.
- Pour some sauce over the fish on everyone's plate and serve with crusty bread, potatoes or rice.

Add a little pasta water if it looks too dry, season to taste and serve with extra Parmesan and scattered with basil leaves, if you like.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place pork on a rimmed baking sheet; rub with cumin, and season with salt and pepper. Roast, turning once, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of pork registers 145 degrees, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes; cut into 4 chunks. Using two forks, shred pork; transfer to a medium bowl and set aside.
- In a large saucepan, heat oil over medium; add onion and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion begins to soften, 4 to 6 minutes. Add tomatillos and 3/4 cup water. Bring to a boil, and reduce to a simmer; cook until tomatillos are soft, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Transfer to a food processor, and blend until smooth; season sauce with salt and pepper. Add 1 cup sauce and corn to pork; mix to combine. Transfer remaining sauce to a shallow bowl.
- Wrap stacked tortillas in damp paper towels; microwave on high for 1 minute to soften. Working with one tortilla at a time, dip in sauce, place on a work surface, and fill with 1/4 cup pork mixture and 1 tablespoon cheese. Roll up, and arrange, seam side down, in a 13-by-9-inch baking dish. Top with remaining sauce and cheese; cover dish with aluminum foil.
- Bake until sauce is bubbling, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove foil, and continue to bake until cheese is browned, about 15 minutes. Let enchiladas cool in dish for 10 minutes, and serve.

GOOD-ON-EVERYTHING GREEN SAUCE
Drizzle this bright, herby sauce over grilled fish, poultry, grain bowls or roasted vegetables. It also makes a tangy dip for crudités or poached shrimp. We like the combination of parsley and chives here, but feel free to use any soft herbs like basil, cilantro, dill or mint. Baby spinach is the key to giving this yogurt-based sauce a lovely green color, but you can also use baby arugula or kale.

- Argentina: Chimichurri. Sit down at most restaurants in the US and they'll put ketchup on the table. Sit down at most restaurants in Argentina and they'll put a jar of chimichurri on the table.
- Morocco: Chermoula. This North African pureed green sauce is traditionally deployed as a marinade for all kinds of seafood, but it can be used for so much more—from marinating chicken or steak or eggplants to drizzling over roasted vegetables.
- Italy: Salsa Verde. It may look a lot like chimichurri, but the flavor of Italian salsa verde is surprisingly different, with chopped capers and sometimes anchovy fillets giving this version an irresistible salty-funky tang.
- Mexico: Salsa Verde. In Mexico salsa verde means something completely different than it does in Italy, but it still involves a lot of fresh herbs and garlic.
- Italy: Pesto. Yes, technically you could call pesto a "salsa verde," since the term just means "green sauce." Pesto's easily the most luscious of the green sauces, since it boasts not only olive oil but cheese (usually Parmesan, sometimes Pecorino) and nuts (often pine nuts, but sometimes with walnuts or other nuts, too).
- Thailand: Chile-Herb Dipping Sauce. An entire book could be written about the broad range of Thai chile-herb sauces, but this version is a great place to start.
- Yemen: Zhoug. This spicy thick green sauce is Yemenite in origin, but it can be found all over Syria, Israel, and other parts of the Middle East, where it's spooned over shakshuka for breakfast and drizzled into falafel sandwiches the rest of the day.
- India: Green Chutney. Cilantro and mint headline together in this earthy Indian green condiment, while ginger and jalapeño give it a a gently burning heat.
- Texas: Creamy Jalapeño Sauce. Austin's favorite taco sauce is affectionately known as That Green Sauce, and no, it's not made with avocados or dairy. The secret to the creaminess of this addictive cilantro, jalapeño, lime, and garlic sauce is to use a blender to slowly emulsify vegetable oil into the puree.
- California: Green Goddess Dressing. Some people might disagree with me on this one, but I don't think you can go on a world-tour of green sauces without mentioning this California babe of a sauce.
