Notes

Salsa can be made up to 4 hours ahead and kept covered in the fridge.
Adjust the spiciness by adding more or less jalapeño.
Great as a topping for grilled fish or chicken, in tacos, or as a dip with tortilla chips.
For an extra kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a few dashes of hot sauce.
