Start by washing all vegetables thoroughly under cold running water.
Dice the ripe tomatoes into small, even pieces, and place them into a large mixing bowl.
Finely chop half a medium red onion and add it to the bowl with the tomatoes.
Trim the jalapeño pepper, remove the seeds and membranes if you prefer less heat, and finely dice. Add to the bowl.
Chop the fresh cilantro finely, measuring about 1/4 cup, and mix it in with the other ingredients.
Juice the large lime over the salsa mixture, ensuring to catch any seeds.
Peel and mince the garlic cloves. Add them to the salsa, followed by sea salt and black pepper.
Gently toss all ingredients together until well combined. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt, pepper, or lime juice, as preferred.
Cover the salsa and let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve chilled or at room temperature as a dip with low carb chips, a topping for grilled meats, or alongside any of your favorite dishes.
