Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces Habanero peppers
- 2 pieces Ghost peppers
- 4 pieces Jalapeño peppers
- 4 pieces Roma tomatoes
- 1 medium Red onion
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves
- 0.5 cups Cilantro
- 3 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons White vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Put on gloves before handling the peppers to protect your skin from their heat.
Remove stems from habanero peppers, ghost peppers, and jalapeños. If you want less heat, you can remove the seeds, but this salsa is designed to be extremely hot.
Roughly chop the Roma tomatoes, red onion, and the garlic cloves.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the tomatoes, red onion, garlic, and all the peppers to the skillet.
Sauté for about 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the vegetables are softened and charred in spots.
Transfer the sautéed mixture to a blender or food processor. Add the cilantro, lime juice, salt, and white vinegar.
Blend until you reach the desired consistency. Blend more for a smooth salsa or pulse for a chunkier texture.
Taste the salsa and adjust the salt or lime juice if needed.
Transfer the salsa to a serving bowl and let it cool to room temperature before serving. You can refrigerate it for up to 1 week in an airtight container.
Serve with tortilla chips, tacos, or as a spicy topping for your favorite dishes. Remember: this salsa is fiery, so use it sparingly at first!
