Step 1
Start by chopping up the cilantro, tomatoes, red onion, jalapeno, and tomatillos, then toss them all into a big bowl. Squeeze in the fresh lime juice, add a splash of hot chili sauce, and sprinkle in some cumin seeds. Give everything a good mix, then season with salt until it tastes just right. Cover the bowl and pop it in the fridge overnight so all those flavors can really come together. When you’re ready to serve, grab some tortilla chips and enjoy!
Why you’ll love it
This salsa is fresh, zesty, and packed with vibrant flavors that wake up your taste buds. It’s easy to make and adds a bright, herby kick to any game day spread. Plus, cilantro gives it a unique twist that stands out from typical salsas.
How to serve
This salsa pairs perfectly with tortilla chips, but it’s also great as a topping for grilled chicken, tacos, or even burgers. It adds a refreshing contrast to heavier game day dishes and can brighten up any appetizer platter.
Storage & leftovers
Store leftover salsa in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will keep fresh for up to 3 days. Stir before serving again, and if it tastes a bit muted, squeeze in a little fresh lime juice to revive the flavors.
