Instructions
Peel the husks off of the tomatillos and cut each in half.
In a skillet coated with vegetable oil over high heat, sear the tomatillo halves until each side has lightly browned.
Place all ingredients into a food processor and pulse until you reach your desired salsa consistency.
Add salt to taste.
For optimal taste, allow the salsa to chill in a refrigerator for 30 minutes to an hour prior to serving.

Notes
For less heat, you can swap out the habanero for 1 to 2 jalapeño peppers.
