Ingredients
- Two 10-ounce cans diced tomatoes with green chiles, such as Rotel
- One 28-ounce can whole tomatoes in juice
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves
- 1/4 cup chopped onion
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 habanero chile, seeded and chopped
- 1 jalapeno, quartered and sliced thin (with seeds and membrane)
- 1 canned chipotle in adobo sauce
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon sugar
- Juice of 1 lime
Instructions
- In a blender or food processor (see Cook’s Note), combine the diced tomatoes, whole tomatoes, cilantro, onions, garlic, chiles, hot sauce, cumin, salt, sugar and lime juice. Pulse until you get the salsa to the consistency you like; I do about 10 to 15 pulses. Test seasonings with a tortilla chip, if you dare. Refrigerate for at least an hour before serving.

Reviews
I tried this as the original recipe and it was great! My second time I traded the chipotle with a jar of candied Jalapeno’s and two table spoons of adobo sauce. My friends devoured it all.
I’ve made it a few times now and it is terrific! Great flavor and the heat level is perfect for me.
Super easy and tasty. Everyone loved it.
My new go to salsa!! It’s perfect & just gets better the longer it sits!
Would this recipe do well for canning? I made this last summer and it was a huge hit and SO GOOD! I would love to make a large batch and can it to be able to take out when ever needed
Made this today. Used a small habanero and the flavor was just right. I have friends I am giving this to and they aren’t huge fans of super spicy. Definitely a keeper!
Great flavor. My jalapeño may have been mild because the salsa had heat but not too too much. Everyone loved – ‘keeper’ as my kids say. Delicious!
Perfect!!
Family absolutely loved it! I have to have some made and in the frig at all times.
Made it without the habanero. Some in the family can’t handle very hot salsa. But it still was amazing.

What can you sub adobo sauce with?
