Chipotle Salsa
I just love making homemade salsas, and this is one of my favorites.
Yield: Serves 4
Chipotle Salsa
Ingredients:
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped (1/2 cup)
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
3 medium plum (Roma) tomatoes, chopped (1 cup)
1 can (14.5 oz) Muir Glen™ organic fire roasted tomatoes, undrained
1 tablespoon chopped chipotle chiles in adobo sauce (from 7-oz can)
1 cup loosely packed fresh cilantro leaves
Tortilla chips
Directions:
In large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Cook onion and garlic in oil, stirring frequently, until onion is very soft. Add plum tomatoes; cook 4 to 5 minutes or until tomatoes start to break down.
Stir in fire roasted tomatoes and chipotle chiles. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer uncovered about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened. Remove from heat; cool slightly.
In food processor or blender, place salsa and cilantro. Cover; process with on-and-off pulses until cilantro is finely chopped. Transfer to serving bowl.
Serve salsa with tortilla chips.
