Smoky chipotle salsa

To make a deliciously smoky chipotle salsa, start by charring 2 chipotle peppers directly on a gas stove or in the oven. Once blackened, add them to a Ziploc bag and seal. After 15 minutes, the skin should peel right off. Then add the peppers to a food processor, along with 2 cloves of garlic,  1 yellow onion, 1/2 handful of fresh parsley and 3 tomatoes. Blend until smooth, or pulse if you prefer your salsa chunky. Season with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, lime juice and lots of salt, and top with fresh cilantro and lime wedges.
