the sauce (spicy cilantro sauce for everything)

• A few weeks ago my sister-in-law and I sat on the basement floor among piles of laundry and flipped through recipes.  It was a rare moment, our kids in camp together, when our our daily overlapped.  We both pulled out Sunset magazine's Chicken Steamed Over Ginger-Garlic Rice.  The rice was great (recommend).  Steamed chicken left a little something to be desired, would grill it next time, but what was amazing was the sauce.  I used only one green jalapeno (no red) and seeded it almost completely.  I've made the sauce for steak, too, and it would be great on grilled chicken,kabobs, fish.
