Ingredients
- 2 medium ripe tomatoes (about 1 lb/454 g), cored and chopped into ¼-inch (6-mm) pieces
- ¼ cup finely chopped white or red onion, from 1 onion
- ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 jalapeño pepper, stemmed, seeded, and minced (see pro tip)
- 1 tablespoon lime juice, from 1 lime
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- Heaping ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the tomatoes, onion, cilantro, jalapeño, lime juice, garlic, and salt. Taste and adjust seasoning with lime juice and salt, adding some of the reserved seeds for a spicier salsa, if desired. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate for up to 1 hour before serving. Store leftover salsa in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one day.
Notes
- Pro tip: To prepare the jalapeño, use a small knife to slice straight down along one side, removing just the flesh. Turn the pepper and repeat with the remaining sides. All of the seeds and most of the veins—the extra hot stuff—should remain in the core. Mince the flesh and reserve the seeds in case you want to add more heat to the salsa. Try to minimize contact with the seeds and be sure to wash your hands well after cutting the pepper; definitely do not touch your eyes.
