Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup onion, minced
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves
1 lime, juiced
8 tomatoes, peeled and chopped
2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and minced
1 jalapeno pepper, minced with seeds
5 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon (or to taste) salt
1 recipe (to taste) ground black pepper

  • Combine cilantro and lime juice in a sealable plastic bag, squeeze bag to remove as much air as possible from the bag before sealing, and massage the lime juice into the cilantro leaves through the bag until the leaves are all moistened.
  • Turn the cilantro out onto a cutting board and chop; transfer to a bowl. Stir onion, tomatoes, jalapeno pepper, garlic, salt, and pepper with the cilantro mixture.
  • Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
