Air Fryer Salsa Roasted to Perfection

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Air Fryer Salsa Roasted to Perfection.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your air fryer to a cozy 390°F (200°C).

2. Step 2

   While it warms up, take your halved tomatoes and jalapeños, placing them cut side down in the air fryer basket alongside some onion wedges.

3. Step 3

   Give those veggies a light spritz of cooking spray to help them roast beautifully.

4. Step 4

   Once your air fryer is ready, pop the basket in and let the vegetables cook for about 5 minutes.

5. Step 5

   After that time, carefully open the basket and introduce some peeled garlic cloves to the mix.

6. Step 6

   A quick spray of cooking oil on the garlic will help it roast nicely too.

7. Step 7

   Close the basket and let everything air fry for another 5 minutes.

8. Step 8

   When the timer goes off, transfer your roasted treasures to a cutting board and let them cool for around 10 minutes.

9. Step 9

   If you like, you can peel the skins off the tomatoes and jalapeños—they should slide off easily after roasting.

10. Step 10

    Next, chop the tomatoes, jalapeños, and onions into large chunks and toss them into a food processor.

11. Step 11

    Add in the roasted garlic, a handful of fresh cilantro, a squeeze of lime juice, and a pinch of salt.

12. Step 12

    Pulse the mixture a few times until it’s finely chopped, but be careful not to overdo it; you want a nice texture.

13. Step 13

    Now, you can serve your vibrant salsa right away at room temperature, or for an even more delicious experience, pop it in the fridge for a bit to let those flavors mingle and deepen.

14. Step 14

    Enjoy your homemade salsa with chips, tacos, or anything else that could use a fresh kick!.
