My ex's mom had the best hand-chopped salsa fresca I have ever tasted. Over the years, I have tweaked her recipe to something my friends and family rave about. The trick for this salsa is marinating the onions and jalapeños in lime juice for about 5 minutes before adding the tomatoes and cilantro. Hope you enjoy!

- 1 jalapeño pepper , seeded and finely chopped - or more to taste
- 2 limes , juiced
- 2.5 cups Roma , plum
- 0.5 cups chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 teaspoon salt

Mix red onion, jalapeño pepper, and lime juice in a bowl. Allow to stand for 5 minutes. Mix in tomatoes, cilantro, and salt; allow to stand 15 more minutes for flavors to blend.

Tender Tomato Chicken Breasts
This stewed chicken and tomato recipe is a light, juicy, flavorful dish. Being a mom of a 7-month-old child, I've learned to take a lot of shortcuts and still be able to cook quality food. This is quick, easy, and tasty. If you absolutely must use fresh veggies, that's ok, but frozen veggies, in my opinion, work a little bit better. Serve with rice, if desired. To kick it up a bit, add chopped green peppers in with the tomatoes.
