Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • ½ pound* Hatch Chiles,
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Prepare the chiles. If you haven't bought your Hatch chiles pre-roasted, here's How to Roast and Peel a Pepper.
  • Mix the ingredients. Add the softened butter, honey lemon juice, prepared peppers, and salt to a food processor and blend until it's as smooth as possible. (There will still be tiny bits of the chiles.)
    Alternately, without a food processor, chop the peppers as finely as possible and mix them with the softened butter, honey, lemon juice and salt.

Notes

* When the chiles are roasted they will weigh less, about ¼ pound. Keep this in mind if you purchase them pre-roasted. (It's about 2 large peppers.)
