“I’ve been making this salsa for a few years now. Chipotle pepper gives it a smoky kick. The recipe makes a big batch, but it doesn’t last a day in our house.” —Pamela Paula, Weeki Wachee, Florida

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds tomatoes (about 6 medium)
  • 1 jalapeno pepper
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves
  • 2 green onions, cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 4 garlic cloves, peeled
  • 1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce
  • 1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chiles
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Tortilla chips

Directions

  • 1. Grill tomatoes and jalapeno, covered, over medium-hot heat for 8-12 minutes or until skins are blistered and blackened, turning occasionally. Immediately place in a large bowl; cover and let stand for 20 minutes.
  • 2. Peel off and discard charred skins. Discard stem and seeds from jalapeno; cut tomatoes into fourths. Set jalapeno and tomatoes aside.
  • 3. Place the cilantro, onions and garlic in a food processor; cover and process until blended. Add the chipotle pepper, tomatoes and jalapeno; cover and pulse until blended.
  • 4. Transfer to a large bowl; stir in the chiles, lime juice, oil and salt. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Serve with chips.
