This recipe does taste very similar to Chili's restaurant salsa. It is a very minimalist salsa with few ingredients and surprising mild for containing so many jalapenos. The lime juice in it gives it a fresh zing when combines with the tomatoes and compliments spicy dishes. It is also quick and easy - takes around 5 minutes.
- 1 can (14 1/2-15 oz) diced canned tomatoes
- 3 tablespoons diced jalapenos (I used 2 fresh jalapenos)
- 1 TBSP lime juice
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/4 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 cup onion, diced - I used 1 small onion
Chop the jalapenos in half, remove the seeds and dice.
Peel onion and dice into pieces.
I used the juice of half of a lime, but you could use bottled lime juice.
Put the above ingredients in a food processor along with the salt and cumin, then open the can of tomatoes.
Run on high speed until pureed, but still a little chunky (around 1 minute).
Store any unused portion in a glass jar in the fridge for about a week.
