Begin by carefully handling the habanero peppers. Use kitchen gloves to avoid direct contact with your skin. Slice the peppers in half, remove the seeds and chop them finely.
Dice the Roma tomatoes into small cubes, retaining as much juice as possible.
Finely chop the red onion and cilantro. Peel and mince the garlic cloves.
Juice the lime, ensuring to capture as much liquid as possible.
In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped habanero, diced tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, and minced garlic.
Add the lime juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to the mixture.
Stir all the ingredients together until well combined. Adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or lime juice to taste.
Allow the salsa to sit for at least 10 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.
