Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 whole Roma tomatoes
- 1 medium White onion
- 0.5 cup Fresh cilantro
- 1 whole Jalapeño pepper
- 1 whole Lime
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 clove Garlic (optional)
Instructions
Rinse and pat dry the Roma tomatoes, white onion, cilantro, and jalapeño pepper.
Dice the Roma tomatoes into small cubes and place them in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Finely chop the white onion and add it to the bowl with the tomatoes.
Roughly chop the fresh cilantro leaves (discarding most of the stems) and add them to the mixture.
Slice the jalapeño pepper in half lengthwise. Remove the seeds and membrane for a milder salsa or keep them for added heat. Finely mince the pepper and mix it into the bowl.
If using garlic, finely mince the clove and stir it into the mixture for an extra layer of flavor.
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the fresh juice over the mixture, ensuring even distribution.
Sprinkle the salt over the ingredients and gently toss everything together until well combined.
Let the Pica De Gallo sit for 5–10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve immediately as a dip with tortilla chips, a topping for tacos, or a fresh side dish.
