Instructions
Prep the Veggies
Start by peeling and seeding the tomatoes, then chop them finely. Do the same for the onion and jalapeño, making sure the pepper is seeded before dicing. Combine the chopped tomatoes, onion, jalapeño, and cilantro in a mixing bowl.
Add Lime Juice and Seasonings
Squeeze the juice of half a lime over the mixture to add a tangy brightness. Season with salt and pepper to taste, enhancing the natural flavors of the ingredients.
Incorporate the Olive Oil
Drizzle in the olive oil to give the salsa a smoother texture and help all the ingredients blend together harmoniously.
Toss to Combine
Gently stir everything together, ensuring the herbs and vegetables are evenly distributed and the mixture is colorful and fragrant.
Chill Before Serving
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This resting time helps the flavors meld beautifully. Serve cold with crisp tortilla chips or as a topping for your favorite dishes.
