Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (10 oz) Ro-Tel diced tomatoes with green chilies
- 2 medium roma tomatoes
- 0.5 medium red onion
- 1 small jalapeño pepper
- 0.5 cup (packed) fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 large garlic clove
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon (or to taste) salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Drain the can of Ro-Tel diced tomatoes with green chilies, reserving the liquid in case you prefer a thinner salsa later.
Chop the roma tomatoes into quarters, and roughly chop the red onion, jalapeño (remove seeds for less heat), and garlic clove.
Add the Ro-Tel, roma tomatoes, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, cumin, salt, and black pepper to a food processor or blender.
Pulse the mixture until it reaches your desired consistency—less time for a chunky salsa, more for smooth.
Taste the salsa and adjust seasoning (salt, lime juice, or spice) as needed. If the salsa is too thick, you can mix in some of the reserved Ro-Tel liquid to thin it out.
Transfer the salsa to a serving bowl and let it sit for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld, or refrigerate until ready to serve.
Serve with tortilla chips, over tacos, or as a topping for your favorite Mexican-inspired dishes.
