Restaurant Style Salsa
Yield: 8 servings
This Restaurant Style Salsa recipe comes together in just a few minutes, thanks to canned fire-roasted tomatoes. It's a quick & easy blender salsa that's loaded with fresh flavor, just like you'd find at your favorite Mexican restaurant!
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup chopped red or yellow onion
- half of a large jalapeno chopped, ribs and seeds removed - use more or less, to taste
- 2 15-ounce cans fire roasted tomatoes, with juice
- 1 large clove garlic minced
- ½ cup lightly packed fresh cilantro leaves
- ¼ cup freshly squeezed lime juice - use more or less to taste
- ½ teaspoon cumin
- ½ teaspoon sugar
- ¼ teaspoon chili powder
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Place onion and jalapeno in a blender or food processor first, then add remaining ingredients. Pulse until salsa is to your desired consistency. Taste test with a tortilla chip, and adjust as needed. Sometimes I add more lime juice or jalapeno or salt - but you can adjust however you want.
- For best flavor, refrigerate for at least an hour before serving, to let the flavors mingle.
Notes
Serve the same day you make this salsa, after it has been refrigerated for at least 1 hour. Keeps well in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
