How to Make Avocado Tomato And Red Onion Salad

  1. Gently dice the avocados and set aside. Halve the cherry or grape tomatoes. Thinly slice the red onion.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the diced avocados, halved tomatoes, sliced red onion, and chopped parsley.
  3. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  4. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and lime juice.
  5. Gently toss to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  6. Serve immediately. For best results, enjoy this salad within 30 minutes of preparation to prevent the avocado from browning.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
