Step 1

Soak the chopped onion in cold water for 10-15 minutes, drained. Gently mix all the ingredients together until well combined. Taste the salsa and adjust the seasoning or lime juice if needed. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Step 2

Once the salsa has chilled, it's ready to serve. You can enjoy it with tortilla chips, as a topping for tacos, burritos, grilled chicken, fish, or as a side to many other dishes.

Store any leftover salsa in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
