Ingredienti

2 large plum tomatoes, de-seeded, chopped

1 medium red onion, chopped red onion

¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves and stems

2 Tbsp fresh lime juice

2–3 Tbsp fresh orange juice

Istruzioni

Gently stir together tomatoes, habanero chiles, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, orange juice and 1 teaspoon of the salt in a medium bowl. Season with additional salt and lime juice to taste, if desired. Let salsa stand at room temperature, uncovered, until flavors meld, about 10 minutes.

Note

Notes from Rachel: I prefer jalapeño chiles in the salsa because I don’t love a ring of fire the day after. Jalapeños still make the lips nice and tingly, so plenty hot for me. Substitute habanero, or Anaheim or sweet pepper if you prefer.
