How to Make Roasted Poblano And Roasted Garlic Salsa

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Roast poblano peppers and garlic cloves directly on the oven rack for 20-25 minutes, or until the peppers are charred and the garlic is softened. Place roasted peppers in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let them steam for 10 minutes to loosen the skins. Once cool enough to handle, peel and roughly chop the poblanos.
  2. While peppers are roasting, halve 1 pound of Roma tomatoes and squeeze out excess seeds and liquid. Finely dice the tomatoes.
  3. Roughly chop the roasted garlic cloves.
  4. In a medium bowl, combine the chopped roasted poblanos (about 2 medium), diced tomatoes, roasted garlic, 1/2 cup chopped red onion (optional, omit if following recipe #54099), 1-2 habanero peppers (or 1-2 jalapeños), finely chopped, seeds and membranes removed, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, 2 tablespoons lime juice, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon cumin.
  5. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add more lime juice for acidity, salt for saltiness, or additional habanero/jalapeño for heat.
  6. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
