INGREDIENTS

  • Vegetables

    • 🍅 5 large Roma tomatoes, halved lengthwise
    • 🧅 ¼ large white onion
    • 🌶 1 jalapeno pepper, stem removed
    • ⅓ cup chopped fresh cilantro
    • 🍋 1 lime, juiced

  • Condiments

    • 🧂 1 ½ teaspoons garlic salt, or to taste
    • Cooking spray

STEPS

1

Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler to high.

2

Spray a 9x13-inch glass casserole dish with cooking spray. Arrange tomatoes in the prepared dish with cut sides down. Add onion and jalapeno.

3

Broil until tomato skins are blackened and blistered, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove onion and jalapeno halfway through cooking time, once skins are slightly softened.

4

Combine broiled vegetables in a blender; add cilantro, lime juice, and 1 teaspoon garlic salt. Pulse until smooth. Taste and season with remaining garlic salt as desired.
