Method

Preparation

Chop the Vegetables

Dice the Roma tomatoes, red onion, and jalapeño pepper into small, uniform pieces. Make sure to remove the seeds from the jalapeño if you prefer a milder salsa.

Chop the Cilantro

Rinse the fresh cilantro under cold water and pat dry. Chop the cilantro leaves finely.

Juice the Limes

Cut the limes in half and squeeze the juice into a small bowl. Remove any seeds that may fall in.

Mixing

Combine Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, red onion, jalapeño, and chopped cilantro.

Season the Salsa

Add the lime juice, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Stir gently to combine all ingredients evenly.

Serving

Chill and Serve

Cover the salsa and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve with tortilla chips or as a topping for tacos.
