TOMATO CHIPOTLE SALSA



Tomato Chipotle Salsa image

Here's a super quick traditional tomato salsa that you can pull together in about 10 minutes. All you need is a food processor (or a blender).

Provided by Meredith

Categories     Sauces

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tbsp red onion (finely diced)
1 clove garlic (minced)
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
1 chipotle in adobo
14.5 ounces fire-roasted tomatoes
1 tsp Jalapeño pepper (minced)
1 lime (juiced)
1/2 tsp salt

Steps:

  • Start by finely dicing the red onion and soaking it in cold water while you prepare the salsa. This will help cut the harsh bite of the onion flavor a little, minimizing its aftertaste.
  • Set up your food processor and with the blade spinning, add the garlic clove. Once it has been chopped finely, add the cilantro leaves through the feed tube. Once the cilantro leaves are chopped, add the chipotle pepper. Then, stop the processor and add the tomatoes, salt and lime juice to taste (start with half a lime and add more if needed). Process until the salsa is the texture you like.
  • Add the minced Jalapeño pepper. Drain the onion well and add it to the processor as well. Process one more time. Adjust the seasonings (salt and lime juice) to taste and serve with tortilla chips.

Canned chipotles in adobo are a convenient way to add smoky bold flavor to sauces and salsa. Amp up the smokiness of this salsa even more by charring up tomatoes, onions and garlic before blending together.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h10m

Yield about 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound plum tomatoes (4 to 5), cored
1 large white onion, sliced 1/2 inch thick
5 cloves garlic, unpeeled
1 canned chipotle chile pepper in adobo
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler. Arrange the tomatoes, onion and garlic close together on a rimmed baking sheet. Broil, turning occasionally, until the tomatoes burst and all the vegetables are softened and charred, about 15 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes.

For more heat, add the remaining 1/2 chipotle and puree. If the salsa is too thick, add a splash of water. Let sit 30 minutes to let the flavors develop. Season with salt.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will greatly impact the flavor of your salsa. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and have a slight give when pressed.
  • Roast the tomatoes: Roasting the tomatoes intensifies their flavor and gives them a smoky depth. You can roast the tomatoes in the oven or on a grill.
  • Use fresh chipotle peppers: Fresh chipotle peppers add a smoky, spicy flavor to the salsa. If you can't find fresh chipotle peppers, you can use canned chipotle peppers in adobo sauce.
  • Add some acidity: The acidity from lime juice or vinegar helps to balance out the heat of the chipotle peppers. You can also add some sweetness with honey or agave nectar.
  • Season to taste: Taste the salsa and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or cumin.

Conclusion:

This griddled tomato chipotle salsa is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used to add flavor to tacos, burritos, quesadillas, and more.
