This Jalapeno Relish is a zesty condiment that adds a delightful kick to any dish!
Prep Time15 minutes
Total Time15 minutes
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 cups sliced pickled jalapenos
  • 1 cup dill pickle chips
  • 1 tablespoon tequila
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh dill
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon Tabasco sauce

Instructions

  • Start by gathering all your ingredients. Drain the sliced pickled jalapenos and dill pickle chips to reduce excess liquid that could make your relish watery. Chop your onion and mince the garlic for a robust flavor.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced pickled jalapenos, dill pickle chips, minced garlic, chopped onion, chopped fresh dill, black pepper, and Tabasco sauce. Don’t forget the splash of tequila—it adds a unique depth to the relish!
  • Using a spoon, mix all the ingredients thoroughly until they are evenly distributed. The goal is to create a cohesive blend of flavors that will come together beautifully as they marinate.
  • For the best flavor, let your jalapeno relish sit for at least 30 minutes at room temperature. This allows the ingredients to meld together. If you can, refrigerate it for a few hours or overnight for even better results.
  • Transfer your relish to a clean jar and store it in the refrigerator. It should last for several weeks, but trust us, it will be gone before you know it!
