Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Roma tomatoes
- 2 pieces Garlic cloves
- 1 medium White onion
- 2 pieces Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 2 pieces Habanero peppers
- 0.5 cup Fresh cilantro
- 1 piece Lime
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Turn on your oven's broiler or preheat a dry skillet over high heat. Roast the Roma tomatoes, garlic cloves (with the skin on), and the habanero peppers. Turn occasionally until they are charred and softened—this will take about 7-10 minutes.
Once roasted, allow the garlic and habaneros to cool slightly. Peel the garlic cloves and remove the stems from the habanero peppers. For less heat, you can remove the seeds and membranes from the habaneros.
Peel the onion and cut it into quarters. Add it to a blender or food processor along with the roasted Roma tomatoes, peeled garlic, chipotle peppers, roasted habaneros, and fresh cilantro.
Squeeze the juice of one lime into the blender. Add the olive oil and salt.
Blend the mixture to your desired consistency. For a chunkier salsa, pulse briefly. For a smoother consistency, blend for a longer duration.
Taste and adjust the salt or lime juice as needed.
Transfer the salsa to a serving bowl or transfer to a jar for storage. For best results, let it sit for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve with tortilla chips, tacos, grilled meats, or any dish in need of a spicy kick. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
