Ingredients

• 1 can (14 ounces) diced tomatoes
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 1 tablespoon white vinegar
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions

1. In a small saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, until the onion is soft and translucent.
2. Add the diced tomatoes, tomato paste, white vinegar, jalapeno pepper, ground cumin, chili powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to the saucepan. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
3. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. The sauce will thicken slightly.
4. Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the sauce cool slightly. Transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth.
5. Once blended, transfer the sauce back to the saucepan and heat it over low heat for another 2-3 minutes to warm it up before serving.
6. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. If you prefer a spicier sauce, you can add more chili powder or a dash of hot sauce.
7. Serve the homemade taco sauce alongside your favorite tacos or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
