Chop the tomatoes and slice the scallions. Dice the garlic and jalapeno. Combine the vegetables and squeeze in the limes and add the olive oil. Roughly chop the cilantro and add. Season the salsa with salt and pepper.

Then transfer the salsa to a sieve so that the excess liquid can drop off. Serve.

The salsa can be prepared a few hours before serving and it tastes best the same day. It will keep for another day or two but will loose some of its freshness.
