Spicy Fire Roasted Salsa

Spicy Fire Roasted Salsa

by Pam on April 15, 2013

We had friends over for dinner and they requested Mexican food. I made this spicy salsa to serve with chips and the chicken tacos that I was making for dinner (recipe to follow). I started out using 1 jalapeno but it didn’t have a strong enough spice (they turned out to be mild peppers) so I added another jalapeno. I loved the richness the roasted tomatoes gave to this salsa and I thought the tang from the lime was great. It was really flavorful and a big hit with us all, even the kids!

Pour the tomatoes into a large mixing bowl. Add the chopped cilantro, green onions, garlic, lime juice, and jalapeno. Toss in the cumin and oregano then season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Blend using an immersion blender until thoroughly combined. Taste then add more jalapeno or seasoning if needed. Cover and set aside for at least 30-60 minutes for flavors to mingle. Serve with chips, tacos, tostadas, eggs, or any of your favorite Mexican dishes. Enjoy.

    Thanks so much for this. I know very little about Mexican food so this is all very interesting and useful for me. I especially love the sound of those pork enchiladas!

    Wow what a varied fantastic selection of Mexican food. If I was at a restaurant, I would have a terrible time figuring out what to have. But I have been craving fish tacos lately, so that would probably be the bingo in this line up.
