Ingredients

• 4 large ripe tomatoes
• 0.5 medium red onion
• 0.5 cup cilantro
• 1 small jalapeño pepper
• 1 medium lime
• 1 clove garlic
• 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Wash the tomatoes thoroughly and dice them into small, bite-sized pieces. Place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Finely chop the red onion and add it to the bowl with the tomatoes.

Step 3

Roughly chop the cilantro leaves and stir them into the mix. Discard the stems.

Step 4

Remove the seeds and finely dice the jalapeño pepper for a milder salsa, or leave the seeds for extra heat. Add it to the bowl.

Step 5

Mince the garlic clove and mix it into the salsa mixture.

Step 6

Roll the lime gently on the counter to release its juices, then cut it in half and squeeze the juice over the salsa. Make sure to catch any seeds.

Step 7

Drizzle the olive oil over the mixture, then add kosher salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 8

Gently toss all the ingredients together until evenly combined. Adjust seasoning as needed.

Step 9

Let the salsa rest for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld, or serve immediately with tortilla chips or as a topping for your favorite dishes.
