Chili Verde Sauce


2 tbs canola oil

1/2 cup chopped onions

1 tsp minced garlic (or power)

1 1/2 cups chicken broth

1 1/2 cups canned, chopped green chilies

1/2 tsp dried oregano

1/2 tsp ground cumin

1/2 tsp black pepper

Salt to taste

2 tbs corn starch

Heat the oil in 2-quart saucepan. Add the onions and the garlic and cook until the onions soften. Add the broth, green chilies, oregano, cumin, pepper and salt and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Mix the cornstarch with a little of the sauce and then stir in the remainder. Bring back to a boil. Cool. (This will keep for up to a week in the refrigerator.)
