Roasted Salsa Bandera! 🌶️

I make a roasted version of Salsa Bandera in my air fryer. Roasting vegetables enhances and brings out their natural flavors. This salsa is excellent on tacos or simply enjoyed with a bowl of chips! 😁🌶️🫑

Ingredients:

🌶️3 medium ripe tomatoes

🌶️4 poblanos

🌶️1 lime

🌶️1 medium white onion

🌶️Fresh cilantro

🌶️Salt and Pepper (S/P)

🌶️1 clove garlic

🌶️Cuisinart

🌶️Green Tabasco (optional for more heat)

🌶️EVOO

Instructions:

I always use a parchment liner in my air fryer for more effortless cleanup!

1. Spritz two of the three tomatoes with EVOO, S/P, and roast at 400 in the air fryer for 20 minutes.

2. Slice down through the onion, but not all the way through, spritz with EVOO, S/P, and roast at 400 degrees in the air fryer for 20 minutes.

3. Spritz the poblanos with EVOO S/P, and roast in the air fryer at 400 for 20 minutes.

4. Let the tomatoes & onion cool.

5. Place poblanos in an air-tight container and let them cool. Once cooled, remove the stems, seeds, and outer skin with your fingers.

6. Put roasted tomatoes + the fresh tomato in the Cuisinart, add the onion, garlic glove, and poblanos + the juice of one lime. Add S/P and green Tabasco to taste and pulse until chunky.

7. Transfer to a large bowl.

8. Chop the cilantro roughly, add to the bowl, mix, and season with S/P and/or Tabasco as needed.

Voila! Serve with chips, tacos, or your favorite plant-based Latin foods! 🥳

This delicious, tangy, bright Salsa Bandera was a huge hit at my house for bean taco night! Enjoy! 😁
