Ingredients

4 ripe tomatoes, diced

1 medium red onion, finely chopped

1-2 jalapeño peppers, seeds removed and minced (adjust for spice preference)

1 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

Juice of 2 limes

Salt, to taste

Ground black pepper, to taste

1 teaspoon ground cumin (optional for extra depth)

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, chopped red onion, and minced jalapeños. Stir gently to mix the ingredients evenly.

Add the chopped cilantro and minced garlic to the bowl, folding them into the mixture to maintain some chunkiness.

Squeeze the juice of the two limes over the salsa, ensuring all ingredients get well coated.

Season with salt, ground black pepper, and ground cumin (if using). Start with a small amount of salt and adjust to taste.

Mix everything gently until well combined, ensuring the salsa retains its chunky texture.

Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more lime juice, salt, or peppers according to your preference.

Let the salsa sit for at least 15-20 minutes at room temperature to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve with tortilla chips, tacos, or as a topping for grilled meats.
