Ingredients

• 4 large ripe tomatoes
• 1 medium red onion
• 0.5 cup fresh cilantro
• 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 medium lime

Directions

Step 1

Begin by rinsing the tomatoes under cold water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. Cut them into wedges, removing the stem and core. Place the tomato wedges into a large salad bowl.

Step 2

Peel the red onion and cut it in half. Slice the onion halves thinly into semi-circles and add them to the bowl with the tomatoes.

Step 3

Rinse the cilantro under cold water and pat it dry with a towel. Roughly chop the cilantro, including some of the stems for added flavor. Add the cilantro to the bowl.

Step 4

In a small dressing jar or bowl, combine the olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Whisk them together until the mixture is emulsified, or shake the jar with a lid until thoroughly combined.

Step 5

Pour the dressing over the tomato salad and toss everything gently to ensure the tomatoes and onions are evenly coated.

Step 6

Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice over the salad, giving it a final light toss to distribute the citrus flavor.

Step 7

Allow the salad to sit for about 5 minutes at room temperature to let the flavors meld together, then serve as a refreshing side dish.
