Cooking Tools Required

Cast iron pan, Cutting board, Food Processor, Measuring cups and spoons, Sharp Knives

Ingredients

For the cast iron pan, grill, or broiler:

  • 8 each Roma tomato sliced in half lengthwise
  • 1/2 each white onion that has been sliced in half crosswise
  • 1 each jalapeno pepper sliced in half lengthwise
  • 2 each serrano pepper
  • 6 clove garlic with skin
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil

For the rest of the salsa:

  • 1 cup fresh cilantro
  • 2 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 ½ teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon adobo sauce from canned chipotles in adobo sauce
  • 1/2 each chipotle pepper from canned chipotles in adobo sauce

Instructions

  • Heat a large cast iron skillet(s) over medium heat. Once hot add the avocado oil, coating the entire pan. Add the tomatoes, jalapeno, serrano, onion, and garlic cloves with the skin. Cook for about 5 minutes per side until nicely charred. Remove the skin from the garlic cloves.
  • In a food processor, add the tomatoes, some of the jalapeno and serrano pepper (so you can adjust for heat), onion and peeled garlic. Pulse until salsa is runny. Add remaining salsa ingredients, again being conservative on the adobo sauce and chipotle pepper. Pulse again, adjust for heat and salt.
