Copycat Chili’s Salsa
Copycat Chili’s Salsa combines canned jalapeno peppers, diced onion, diced tomatoes with green chilies, whole peeled tomatoes, garlic salt, cumin, and a bit of sugar for balanced flavor. Processed in a food processor to a coarse blend, it recreates the tangy, mildly spicy salsa commonly served in restaurants. Optional fresh lime juice and cilantro add brightness and herbal notes to the chilled salsa, making it a versatile condiment or dip.
