{{ :recipes:chipotle_corn_salsa.jpg?direct&200|}} ====== Chipotle Corn Salsa ====== /* Description */ Copycat recipe {(rater>id=100|name=Chipotle Corn Salsa|type=rate|headline=off)} |**Preheat:** °|**Yield:** 10 servings|| |**Prep:** 0:20|**Wait:** 0:00|**Cook:** 0:15| ====== Ingredients ====== * 24 ounces frozen corn (see note 1) * 1/2 cup red onion finely chopped * 1 large roasted poblano pepper peeled, seeded, and finely chopped (see note 2) * 2 jalapeño peppers stemmed, seeded, and finely chopped * 1/4 cup fresh cilantro finely chopped (see note 3) * 1 tablespoon lemon juice * 1 tablespoon lime juice * Salt * tortilla chips for serving ====== Directions ====== - Grill the corn and poblano to get a bit of char. - Place the poblano in a bowl and cover with plastic for 5-10 minutes. Using gloves, peel and seed the peppers and finely chop. - To a large bowl, add cooled corn, red onion, jalapeño peppers, poblano pepper, cilantro, lemon juice, and lime juice. Season to taste with salt and serve with tortilla chips, burrito bowls, and tacos. ====== Notes ====== - Corn: Chipotle employees have reported with Chipotle uses frozen corn. To substitute fresh corn, bring a large pot of water and 1 tablespoon salt to a boil over high heat. Add 6 ears of corn and boil for 3 to 5 minutes. Submerge ears in a large bowl of ice water. When the corn is cool enough to handle, cut it off the cob and transfer to a large bowl. - Roasted poblano peppers: - Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup. Arrange peppers in a single layer on prepared baking sheet. - Broil the peppers until the skin is charred and blistered but not ash white, turning occasionally, about 30 to 40 minutes. - Transfer to a bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Let stand until the skin starts to loosen and the peppers are cool enough to handle, about 10 minutes. - Wearing gloves or using a clean kitchen towel, carefully rub off and discard the blackened skin. Leave the stem and seeds intact if desired for your recipe; otherwise, remove and discard them. - Cilantro. Omit or sub parsley if you don't like cilantro. - Roasted corn: Chipotle doesn't roast their corn, but that doesn't mean you can't! Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cut fresh corn kernels from cobs. Spread corn in single layer on a rimmed baking sheet pan. Roast until golden brown, stirring twice, about 30 to 40 minutes. - Make it mild: Substitute bell peppers (raw or roasted) for the poblanos and jalapeños if you want to cut out the spice. - Make it spicier: Substitute minced fresh serrano chiles (with their seeds) for the jalapeños if you like it SPICY. Minced habañeros would also be delicious! /* Nutrition block - remove the slash-asterisk and asterisk-slash from just above and below the following block */ /* ====== Nutrition ====== |Calories (kcal): |Fat Calories (kcal): |Cholesterol (mg): |[[recipes:notes:nutrition guidelines |(Guide)]] | |Fat (g): |Saturated Fat (g): |Mono Fat (g): |Poly Fat (g): | |Protein (g): |Carbohydrates (g): |Sodium (mg): |Fiber (g): | */ {{tag>Recipes Condiment American/Southwestern }} /* Recipe Tags - Copy and paste tags from the list below to the tag list in the above line, replacing the "TagsNeeded" tag and separated by spaces. */ /* ---Recipe Types--- Appetizer Appetizer/Cold Appetizer/Hot Beverage Beverage/Cocktail Beverage/Liquor-Mixer Bread Bread/Biscuit-Roll Bread/Muffin Bread/Quickbread Bread/Yeast Breakfast Casserole Canning-Freezing Condiment American/Southwestern Dessert Dessert/Bar-Brownie Dessert/Cake Dessert/Cake/Frosting Dessert/Candy-Chocolate Dessert/Crisp-Buckle Dessert/Cookie Dessert/Custard-Curd Dessert/IceCream-Ice Dessert/Pie Dessert/Pie/Crust Dessert/Topping Dip-Spread Entertaining Fondue Grilling-BBQ Grilling-BBQ/BBQSauce Holiday Ingredient Ingredient/Seasoning-Rub Ingredient/Brine-Marinade InstantPot Kid-Friendly MainDish MainDish/Beef MainDish/Poultry MainDish/Pork MainDish/Seafood MainDish/Vegetarian Pasta-Rice Pizza Roast Salad Salad/Dressing Sandwich Sauce-Gravy Sausage-Pate Side Side/Starch Side/Vegetable Snack Soup Soup/Stock-Broth Stew-Braise Stew-Braise/InstantPot Stew-Braise/SlowCooker-Crockpot Stir-Fry Vegetarian ---Recipe Cuisines--- American American/Cajun-Creole American/Southern American/Southwestern African Asian Asian/Chinese Asian/Indian Asian/Japanese Asian/Korean Asian/Thai Asian/Vietnamese European European/English European/French European/Greek European/Polish European/Italian European/Spanish Latin Latin/Brazilian Latin/Mexican MiddleEastern ---Recipe Sources--- AmericasTestKitchen AmericasTestKitchen/CooksCountry AmericasTestKitchen/CooksIllustrated BonAppetit Chowhound FineCooking FoodWine GoodEats Gourmet KingArthurFlour MilkStreet LMaidment TMaidment DMarcos JMarcos KMarcos JPhalen DPendergast ---Recipe Ratings--- 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1★ No★ ---Recipe Alerts--- RecipeNeeded RecipeIncomplete RecipeWrong RecipeFails TagsNeeded */ ~~DISCUSSION~~
