Instructions

  1. Add the tomatoes, jalapenos (or serranos), onion, and cilantro to a mixing bowl.
  2. Add the lime juice and salt. Mix to combine.
  3. Taste and adjust for salt and lime.
  4. Cover and let the flavor mingle for a good hour or so, though you can serve it right away if you're in a hurry.

Notes

  • Makes 3-4 cups.
  • Heat Factor: Mild-Medium. You'll get a bit of a kick from the jalapenos, depending on their variable heat value. You can really spice it up by incorporating serrano peppers or even spicier habanero peppers.
  • I like to add minced garlic and a touch of cumin and black pepper to my pico de gallo as well. See the recipe video.
