Description

This salsa is delicious, easy, and versatile. I serve it with many grilled foods, including seafood, pork, and chicken. It's also excellent as a dip with tortilla chips. To preserve the salsa and prevent it from darkening, bury the avocado pits in it, cover tightly, and store in the refrigerator. It will keep for 3 to 4 days.

Ingredients

3/4 pound ripe tomatoes, rinsed and drained, stems removed
2 avocados, peeled, pit removed, cut into 1/4-inch dice
Juice of about 1 1/2 limes (about 4 1/2 tablespoons)
1 jalapeno chile, cored and seeded, or to taste
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 cup minced scallion greens
2 tablespoons fruity extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped coarsely
1 teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. Cut the tomatoes in half and scoop out the seeds. Cut into 1/2-inch dice and put in a serving bowl.
  2. Add the remaining ingredients and carefully stir to mix evenly. Taste for seasoning and adjust if necessary. Use as directed in the recipe or served with any type of grilled meat, seafood, or vegetable.
