Texans can make a meal of chips and salsa and we are pretty picky about what we like. I personally like oven roasted salsa, but in a pinch, here is my go-to recipe. It’s quick, makes a lot and tastes like what you get in a restaurant. Enjoy!
Restaurant Style Salsa
Servings 6
Equipment
- immersion blender
Ingredients
- 1 can 14 ounce Fire Roasted Tomatoes
- 1 can 10 ounce diced tomatoes and green chilies
- 1/4 cup chopped onion
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 small Jalapeño halved and seeds removed
- 1/8 teaspoon sugar
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
Instructions
- Combine both cans of tomatoes, onion, jalapeño, garlic, sugar, salt, cumin, cilantro, and lime juice in a deep bowl. Use the immersion blender and pulse until you get the consistency you like. Test seasonings with a tortilla chip and add if needed.
- Serve immediately with tortilla chips and store leftovers in the refrigerator.
I invested in an expensive immersion blender even though I already owned a cheap brand. The expensive one lasted only a few months so I went back to using my old one and it is still working! That’s why I posted the model at the bottom of the page.
