Ingredients
- 4 Roma tomato diced
- 1 red onion finely diced, small
- 1 jalapeño ribs and seeds removed, finely chopped
- ½ cup cilantro finely chopped, fresh, about 1 bunch
- ¼ cup lime juice
- ½ teaspoon salt to taste
Instructions
- In a medium serving bowl, combine the tomatoes, red onion, jalapeno and cilantro.
- Add lime juice and salt, and stir everything together. Taste, and add more salt if necessary.
- For the best flavor, let the mixture marinate for 15 minutes or several hours in the refrigerator. Serve as a dip, or with a slotted spoon or large serving fork to avoid transferring too much watery tomato juice with your pico. Pico de gallo keeps well in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 4 days.
- Wait for 15 minutes to let all the flavors meld. But if you can't wait to dig in, serve it with tortilla chips and enjoy!
Notes
- Fresh Ingredients: Always use the freshest ingredients possible. This makes a world of difference in flavor.
- Uniform Chopping: Try to keep your chopping uniform. This ensures a consistent texture and flavor in each bite.
- Season Gradually: Add salt and lime juice gradually, tasting as you go. This helps you find the perfect balance.
- Resting Time: Don’t skip the resting time. It’s crucial for allowing the flavors to develop fully.
