Ingredients
- 1 cup roasted red peppers I used a drained jar of the strips
- 1/4 red onion peeled and rough chopped
- 2 bell peppers I used 1/2 each of a yellow, orange, and green pepper
- 1 Jalapeño rough chopped, seeds and all
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro stems removed
- Juice of 2 limes
- 1 tsp sherry vinegar
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Put the drained roasted peppers into a small food processor and pulse about 20 times, until they are pureed but still have a slight texture. Transfer to a bowl.
- I process each ingredient separately so that they get evenly minced. Pulse the red onion until finely chopped and then transfer to the bowl.
- Do the same with the bell peppers, and then the jalapeno, and finally the cilantro. Add it all to the bowl.
- Mix everything together with a spoon, and add the lime juice, vinegar, and a little salt and pepper.
- Cover and refrigerate until well chilled. Just before serving, taste it and adjust the lime, vinegar, salt and pepper to your liking.
- This will keep well for a day in the refrigerator.

Notes
- I'm not a fan of raw garlic, but if you are, definitely add a clove.
