Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Roma tomatoes
- 1 cup Sweet corn kernels
- 1 cup Black beans
- 1 medium Red bell pepper
- 1 medium Green bell pepper
- 1 small Red onion
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 small Jalapeño pepper
Instructions
Dice the Roma tomatoes into small pieces and add them to a large mixing bowl.
Rinse and drain the black beans thoroughly, then add them to the bowl.
Add the sweet corn kernels to the mixing bowl; fresh, canned, or thawed frozen corn will work.
Chop the red and green bell peppers into small, uniform pieces and stir them into the bowl.
Finely chop the red onion and the jalapeño pepper (remove seeds for less heat), then add them to the mix.
Roughly chop the fresh cilantro and stir it into the salsa mixture.
In a small bowl, whisk together the fresh lime juice, olive oil, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper.
Pour the lime dressing over the salsa ingredients and gently toss everything together until well combined.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more salt or lime juice if desired.
Transfer the Santa Fe Salsa to a serving dish and let it rest for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, or use as a topping for tacos, grilled chicken, or fish. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
