Ingredients
- 14.5 oz canned diced tomatoes
- 14.5 oz canned fire-roasted tomatoes
- 0.5 medium yellow onion
- 1 whole jalapeño
- 2 whole garlic cloves
- 0.5 cup fresh cilantro
- 1 whole lime
- 0.5 tsp cumin
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp sugar
Directions
Step 1
Drain the canned diced tomatoes to remove excess liquid. Leave the fire-roasted tomatoes un-drained.
Step 2
Peel and roughly chop the onion and garlic.
Step 3
Remove the stem from the jalapeño, and for less heat, remove the seeds and membrane. For spicier salsa, leave them in.
Step 4
Add the drained diced tomatoes, fire-roasted tomatoes, onion, jalapeño, garlic, and fresh cilantro to a food processor or blender.
Step 5
Juice the lime and add the juice to the blender.
Step 6
Add the cumin, salt, and sugar for seasoning.
Step 7
Pulse the mixture in the blender or food processor, using short bursts, until the salsa reaches your desired texture. For chunky salsa, pulse lightly; for smoother salsa, blend longer.
Step 8
Taste the salsa and adjust seasoning as needed. Add more salt or lime juice if desired.
Step 9
Transfer the salsa to a bowl or jar, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
Step 10
Serve chilled with tortilla chips or as a topping for tacos, burritos, or any dish you like!
