Variations Ideas

• Spice Level – Feel free to adjust the spice level in this salsa recipe. You can add in seeds for the jalapeno or add in about a ¼ teaspoon of red pepper flakes.
• Corn – We made this recipe with canned corn but you can also use fresh ears of corn. I like to use leftover grilled sweet corn on the cob for added flavor. Fresh corn kernels makes this copycat Chipotle Corn salsa recipe so flavorful.
• Substitute – Feel free to substitute the fresh lime juice with lemon juice or other citrus flavors.
• Additions – This salsa can be made with your favorite additions. Add in diced tomatoes, poblano peppers, black beans and bell pepper.

Step by Step Instructions

• Step 1 – First, you will need to chop all of your ingredients. 

• Step 2 – Second, combine all ingredients in a bowl and let marinate in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. That is all! I told you it was SO easy.

• Step 3 – Finally, just serve and enjoy.

Recipe Tips

• Prepare Veggies – You are going to do a lot of chopping so I highly recommend you get this stainless steel chopper. I have one and I love it. It is a life saver when you have a ton of chopping to do. I use mine almost every single day.
• Lime Juice – I also have a lime juicer and it is nice because it catches the seeds and gets every last bit of juice. Just another little gadget that helps make life easier.
• Refrigerate – After combining ingredients, make sure to allow the copycat recipe to marinate together for the best flavor.

Serving Suggestions

We love to enjoy this as a snack or with Mexican Monday. Serve with tortilla chips and enjoy. It is also amazing with grilled chicken, salads, burrito bowls or shrimp. I can seriously eat it by the spoonful because it is so delicious.
