Ingredients

Servings
  • ½ white onion
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 2 jalapeños
  • 1 tomato
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ¼ cup tomato sauce
  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • ¼ teaspoon salt plus more to taste
  • 1 pinch black pepper ground

Instructions

  1. Wash and chop the jalapeños, tomato, and white onion into bite-sized pieces. Mince the garlic.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a small pot on medium heat. Sauté the garlic and onion for about minute, making sure not to burn either the garlic or the onion.
  3. Add the chopped jalapeño and sauté for another 2 minutes.
  4. Add the chopped tomato and cook for another 30 seconds.
  5. Add the tomato sauce and chicken broth. 
  6. Season with ¼ teaspoon of salt and a pinch of pepper.
  7. Bring to a simmer. Let the salsa simmer for about 6 minutes until the jalapeños are somewhat tender and the sauce has slightly thickened.
  8. Taste for seasoning and adjust salt to your preference.

Notes

  • For Whole30, use a compatible brand of chicken broth or make your own. The same goes for the tomato sauce.
  • For a spicier salsa, add one or two chopped serranos.
  • For a milder salsa, use only one jalapeño and add an additional tomato. Another option to lessen the heat is to scoop out the veins and seeds with a spoon from the inside of the chiles.
  • Easily double or triple the ingredients to make a larger quantity.
  • Use fresh, ripe Roma tomatoes for the best tasting salsa.
