Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Avocados
- 2 medium Roma tomatoes
- 0.5 small Red onion
- 2 whole Garlic cloves
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro
- 1 medium Jalapeño
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 1 tablespoon Extra virgin olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cumin
Instructions
Halve, pit, and dice the avocados, then scoop out the flesh and set it aside in a bowl.
Dice the Roma tomatoes and finely chop the red onion, garlic cloves, cilantro, and jalapeño. Remove the seeds from the jalapeño if you'd like a milder spice level.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat.
Add the garlic and red onion to the skillet and sauté for 2 minutes until fragrant and slightly softened.
Add the diced tomatoes and jalapeño to the skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes start to soften but retain their shape.
Lower the heat to medium-low and gently fold in the diced avocado. Cook for an additional minute, just until the avocado warms up but does not break down.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the lime juice, salt, ground cumin, and chopped fresh cilantro.
Transfer the warm avocado salsa to a serving bowl and serve immediately with your favorite chips, tacos, or grilled protein.
