Chili’s Salsa Recipe – do you love the restaurant Chili’s chips and salsa? It is so easy to make at home year round! Great for taco night, game day or just because!

When my son was younger he loved to go to Chili’s restaurant. There was something about the chips and salsa that he loved, and we had to order them every time we went! Can’t say I blame him, it was one of my favorites too. I mean, I could live on chips and salsa.

And if you add Margaritas to the menu, then I am all in!

How to Make Chili’s Salsa

Be sure to scroll to the bottom of the post for the FULL PRINTABLE recipe card.

  1. I like to finely chop my onions and jalapeno before I add them to the food processor. This just means you have to process it less, and you will get a chunkier salsa. But if you like your salsa smooth, than you can just cut into chunks when you add it to the food processor.
  2. Add all of the ingredients into the food processor and pulse until blended but still slightly chunky.
  3. Taste and then adjust the seasonings as necessary. If it needs more salt, just stir it in to blend it if you want your salsa to have any chunks.

I love how simple and easy this homemade salsa is to make. I am not a huge fan of jarred salsa, but I could eat homemade salsa all day every day, and this is a staple in our fridge for sure!

Can You Make This Salsa Spicier

Absolutely. You can definitely add more jalapeno if you like it spicy. You could even use a habanero or other hot pepper if a jalapeno isn’t hot enough. Or if you want it mild, cut back on the jalapeno called for in the recipe.

How to Store Homemade Salsa

Store in the fridge in an air tight container. The flavors blend together as it sets, so it is best after a few hours or over night. Chili’s salsa will last in the fridge for about a week.

If you are a fan of chips and salsa this is a must try recipe. You can always have a can of tomatoes in the pantry, so you can make this at any time. It is great to bring to parties or make for taco night. Your family is going to be really impressed when you bring out homemade salsa on a busy weeknight!
