Ghost Pepper Green Sauce

Recipesfull introduces to you: Cinco de Mayo Recipes. (Ghost Pepper Green Sauce). This is my version of the green sauce found in Peruvian restaurants, spiced up even more with ghost peppers. For a more tame sauce, omit the ghost peppers. This is mouth burning, but addictive. It's great on Peruvian chicken, burritos, salads, or as a veggie dip.
