Ingredients
- 6 pieces Roma tomatoes
- 2 pieces Jalapeño peppers
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 2 pieces Garlic cloves
- 0.5 cup Fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 14-ounce can Canned fire-roasted tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your broiler to high.
Step 2
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place the Roma tomatoes, jalapeño peppers, garlic cloves (unpeeled), and the yellow onion (peeled and quartered) on the sheet.
Step 3
Drizzle the vegetables with the vegetable oil and toss to coat evenly.
Step 4
Broil the vegetables for 8-10 minutes, turning halfway through, until they are nicely charred on all sides.
Step 5
Remove the vegetables from the oven and allow them to cool slightly. Peel the garlic cloves and remove the seeds from the jalapeños if you prefer less heat.
Step 6
In a blender or food processor, combine the broiled vegetables, canned fire-roasted tomatoes, fresh cilantro, lime juice, ground cumin, and salt.
Step 7
Blend until the salsa reaches your desired consistency (smooth or slightly chunky). Adjust seasoning to taste if necessary.
Step 8
Transfer the salsa to a bowl and let it rest for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve with tortilla chips or use as a topping for tacos, burritos, or any Mexican-inspired dish!
