How to Make Jalapeno Cilantro Lime Salsa

  1. Finely chop 2-3 jalapenos (remove seeds and membranes for less heat). Mince 1/2 cup of fresh cilantro.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the chopped jalapenos, cilantro, 1/2 cup chopped red onion, 1 (14.5 ounce) can of diced tomatoes (drained), and the juice of 2 limes.
  3. Add 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper. Stir well to combine.
  4. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more lime juice for extra zing, or salt/pepper to your preference.
  5. Let the salsa sit for at least 1 hour (or up to 2) to allow the flavors to meld. This step is key for the best taste!
  6. Serve chilled or at room temperature with your favorite dishes.
