Onion Lime Salad

Description

Onion lime salad is a bright, zesty side dish made from thinly sliced red or white onions marinated briefly in fresh lime juice, often with a pinch of salt and sometimes a touch of chili or cilantro. The acidity of the lime softens the sharpness of the raw onions, resulting in a crisp, tangy, and refreshing accompaniment that cuts through rich or spicy flavors—ideal alongside grilled meats, curries, or rice dishes.
