2 tsp black pepper

3 garlic cloves, minced

Step 4

Add in the diced onion and jalapeños, if you're concerned about the spice level you can remove the seeds from the jalapeños or only use one jalapeño instead of 2. Cook for about 5-7 minutes.

Step 5

Add in the chopped tomatoes, mix to combine and cook this down for 12-15 minutes or until most of the tomatoes have fully broken down. You can use more or less tomatoes, just depends on how saucy you want your dish to be. At this point taste the dish and adjust any seasonings if needed.
