How to Make Tomato Salsa Uncle Bill's Version

  1. Finely chop the onion, garlic, and cilantro.
  2. Remove the stems and seeds from the jalapeños (leave some seeds for extra spice). Dice the jalapeños finely.
  3. Dice the tomatoes into small, roughly 1/2 inch pieces.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the chopped onion, garlic, cilantro, jalapeños, and tomatoes.
  5. Add the lime juice, olive oil, salt, and cumin.
  6. Gently mix all ingredients until well combined.
  7. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more lime juice for extra zing, salt for more savoriness, or jalapeños for extra heat.
  8. Let the salsa sit for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. This step is optional but recommended for the best results.
  9. Serve with tortilla chips, use as a topping for tacos, burritos, grilled chicken, or fish.
