1 cup fresh cilantro leaves
Juice of 2 limes
1/2 teaspoon cumin
Pinch of cayenne pepper
A couple large pinches Kosher salt
Large pinch fresh cracked black pepper

Add Ingredients: Place all the ingredients, including the fire-roasted diced tomatoes, red onion, garlic, jalapeno, cilantro, lime juice, cumin, cayenne pepper, Kosher salt, and cracked black pepper, into a high-speed blender or food processor.

For a chunkier salsa, pulse the blender instead of continuously blending.
