3 cloves of garlic, minced
1 small white onion, chopped
1 large tomato, chopped
1/2 cup of cilantro, chopped
1/4 cup of lime juice
Salt to taste
To begin, roast the habanero peppers on a hot skillet until they are slightly charred. This will help bring out their smoky flavor. Then, place the peppers in a blender along with the garlic, onion, and tomato. Blend until you have a smooth mixture. Next, add in the cilantro, lime juice, and salt and blend again. Taste the salsa and adjust the seasoning as needed.
Salsa with a Kick
What makes this salsa truly stand out is its intense heat. The habanero peppers are not for the faint of heart, but for those who love a good spicy kick. The heat from the peppers is balanced out by the sweetness of the tomato and the tanginess of the lime juice, creating a perfectly harmonious flavor profile.
