Start by prepping your ingredients. Dice the Roma tomatoes into small, bite-sized pieces and place them in a medium mixing bowl.
Peel the orange and segment it. Cut each orange segment into small chunks and add to the tomatoes.
Finely dice the red onion and add it to the bowl with the tomatoes and oranges.
Mince the cilantro leaves and add them to the mixture. Discard any tough stems.
Carefully remove the seeds and ribs from the jalapeño pepper, then finely dice it. Add to the bowl. If you prefer less spice, use only half of the jalapeño.
Mince the garlic clove and stir it into the salsa mixture.
Juice the lime and pour the fresh lime juice over the salsa. Stir well to combine.
Season the salsa with salt and ground black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Let the salsa sit for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
