ROASTED TOMATO, ONION, PEPPER & CHIPOTLE SALSA

ROASTED TOMATO, ONION, PEPPER & CHIPOTLE SALSA image

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 vine ripe tomatoes roasted
1 small yellow onion roasted
2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 chipotle pepper (or more or less, depending on your heat tolerance - a whole pepper makes this salsa quite hot!) from a can of chipotles packed in adobo sauce
3 tablespoons cilantro
3 red bell peppers roasted
1 teaspoon garlic
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
Coarse sea salt

Steps:

Preheat the broiler to high, placing the rack in the upper third of the oven. Line a baking sheet with tin foil and toss, directly on the sheet, the tomatoes and onion and red peppers with the olive oil. Broil, stirring now and then, until the tomatoes have collapsed and the onions have softened a bit and everything is slightly charred, about 10 minutes. Place the tomatoes, onions and red peppers in a food processor with the chipotle, cilantro and lime juice, garlic and blitz until everything is puréed. Remove the salsa to a bowl and season to taste with salt.
