Delicious! I made it without peppers, used green onions instead of red and about 1/3 cup chopped cilantro. Wonderful flavor! Served it with brown rice and swordfish.
I seeded and grilled the jalapeños to cut down on the spiciness of the peppers to satisfy those who are adverse to the “heat”... perfection.
I cut back on the peppers to accommodate a variety of guests’ palates, and added more lime juice. It was delicious but I missed the added zip the extra peppers would provide. Next time I will divide the recipe into 2 separate bowls, one mild, one spicy. This recipe makes a lot of salsa. I served it with salmon street tacos for 14 guests, and there was a bit left over.
