Have you had the Hatch Valley Green Chile Breakfast Burrito at Good Times? How about the Hatch Valley Green Chile French Fries? Both are really, really good. And that “Hatch Valley Green Chile” in both dishes is more than just diced chiles from Hatch – it’s their special recipe for Hatch Valley Green Chile. It’s a smooth orange spicy and very flavorful green chile sauce that’s one of the best I’ve ever had for smothering. I’d pour it on nachos, smother burritos with it, pour it in and on an omelet. How about an eggs benedict made with Hatch Valley Green Chile instead of Hollandaise?
Good Times was generous enough to share their recipe with me. So I’m hoping lots of you will make it yourself and let me know just how you served it. In the photo above, I just served it with tortilla chips. In the photo below, I smothered tater tots with it. Holidays are coming, and this is great for taking to a party.
- 1 T. Lard
- 1 T. Flour
- 2 c. Chopped Green Chile, roasted & peeled

Just tried this, not even remotely close to GoodTimes chili
Hi Rusty, This isn’t a copycat recipe – Good Times gave me their recipe to share. Don’t know what to say – how was it different?
