Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Roma tomatoes
- 0.5 medium Red onion
- 1 whole Jalapeño pepper
- 0.25 cup Cilantro
- 1 whole Lime
- 1 clove Garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Wash and dry the Roma tomatoes, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, and lime.
Dice the Roma tomatoes into small, even-sized pieces and transfer them to a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Finely dice the red onion and add it to the bowl with the tomatoes.
Slice the jalapeño in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to remove the seeds and membrane for a milder flavor (or leave them in for extra spice). Finely dice the jalapeño and add it to the bowl.
Chop the cilantro finely and measure out 1/4 cup. Stir it into the tomato mixture.
Peel and mince the garlic clove, adding it to the bowl.
Slice the lime in half and squeeze its juice over the ingredients in the bowl. Make sure to catch any seeds.
Sprinkle in the salt and black pepper.
Gently toss all the ingredients together until well combined.
Taste the Pico de Gallo and adjust the seasoning with more salt, pepper, or lime juice as needed.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, or use as a topping for tacos, burritos, or grilled meats. For best flavor, let it sit for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
