Begin by washing the tomatoes thoroughly under cold water. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
Dice the tomatoes into small, even pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Finely chop the red onion until you have about 0.5 cup and add it to the bowl with the tomatoes.
Slice open the jalapeño pepper, remove the seeds for a milder salsa, or leave them in for extra heat. Dice the jalapeño finely and add to the bowl.
Rinse the cilantro and chop it coarsely. Measure out 0.5 cup and add it to the mixture.
Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the bowl.
Squeeze fresh lime juice until you have about 2 tablespoons and pour it over the salsa ingredients.
Season the mixture with salt and black pepper.
Gently mix all the ingredients together using a spoon until well combined.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more lime juice, salt, or pepper to your liking.
Serve immediately with your choice of chips or let it sit for about 30 minutes in the refrigerator to allow the flavors to meld.
