PRO TIP: Feel free to add more or less peppers depending on how mild or spicy you like it. Start with 1 and taste as you go!
2) Start by adding 2 Tbsp. of water to a blender and blend until it becomes a smooth mixture. If needed, add more water until the desired consistency.

5) Turn off heat and add lemon juice and cilantro. Let the filling cool for 10-15 minutes.
