This Homemade Chipotle Salsa packs a punch. It comes together in a blender in less than 5 minutes and goes on just about everything, grilled fish, chicken, steak, breakfast burritos, and of course nachos!

Chef's Notes

NotesBlender salsa is the best because there's no knife work necessary!
This recipe makes me particularly happy for many reasons, but one giant one being there's really no knife work involved. No chopping up tomatoes perfectly... none of that here. Instead it all goes into a blender and then you're ready to eat!

Ronald ★ 5.0/5

Fast and easy! Brilliant taste - we use 3 chipotle peppers for a little more kick. Also changed Jalapeno's for roasted Red Chili peppers. Will never buy the jar stuff again. Thank you!

I’m obsessed. So easy and so delicious!

Danita ★ 5.0/5

Easy and delicious. It received a thumbs up from my salsa picky husband.
I did cut back the chipotle by 1 as mine were so big.
Definitely a keeper recipe.

Kim ★ 5.0/5

I’ve made this twice now and it is delicious! It is pretty hot for me, so I need to slightly adjust the heat, either with the adobo chilis or the jalapeño. The recipe is super quick and easy and SO MUCH BETTER than jarred salsa. YUM!!!! Thank you, Gaby!

Love this recipe! So easy to throw together and a crowd pleaser! I found it just in time for football season. Love the smoky flavor.
