Pico de Gallo
Report
This authentic pico de gallo recipe (also known as salsa fresca) is filled with chopped up fresh roma tomatoes, white onion, cilantro, jalapeños (or serranos) and lime juice. You need less than five ingredients to make this Mexican classic. Serve it on my ground beef tacos or carne asada tacos.

Ingredients
- 5 ripe roma tomatoes deseeded and core removed, diced
- 1/2 small white onion (about 3/4 cup cup diced onion)
- 1 Jalapeño finely diced (OR 1 serrano)
- 2 tablespoons finely minced fresh cilantro
- Juice from 1/2 Lime
- kosher salt
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, add in the diced tomatoes, white onion, jalapeno, fresh cilantro lime juice and a pinch of kosher salt. For the best results, let it sit for 10-15 minutes to marinate.
- Give it a taste and adjust the salt to your liking. Serve with tortilla chips or top it on your favorite tacos, nachos or enchiladas.

Notes
- Tips and Tricks:
- Tips and Tricks:
- Use fresh tomatoes - I like to use bright red and firm roma tomatoes. I've used delicious heirloom tomatoes for this recipe and they're also SUPER delicious.
- Let Pico de Gallo Rest for 15 Minutes - I like to let it "marinate" for 15 minutes. This really allows the salt and lime juice to marinate the tomatoes. I even do this for my tomato sandwich and it helps SO much.
- Use a slotted spoon - If you find that it's getting a bit watery, you can always drain it right before serving. Or you can serve it with a slotted spoon.
