Mexican Take-Out Easy Tomato And Chipotle Salsa

Mexican Take-Out Easy Tomato And Chipotle Salsa


1. In a blender, combine the tomatoes, lime juice, and chiles. Puree until smooth and pour into a bowl.

2. Rinse the onion under cold running water in a colander. Add the onion and cilantro to the salsa and season with salt to taste and add more lime juice, if desired. If necessary, thin the salsa with a little water. Let the salsa sit for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.

3. Tip: If you can find the fire-roasted type of canned tomatoes (Muir Glen brand), they work beautifully in this recipe.

4. Make ahead: The salsa can be made up to the point where the onion and cilantro are added 1 week ahead of time and kept covered in the refrigerator. Add the onions and cilantro just before serving.
