Pico de Gallo
Author Regan Baroni
Ingredients
- 2 cups tomatoes, finely diced and rinsed
- 1 cup red onion, finely diced
- 2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
- 1 serrano pepper, de-seeded and diced (can substitute with a jalapeño, if desired)
- Zest of 1 lime
- Juice of 1 lime, plus more to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
Instructions
- After dicing the tomatoes, place in a strainer and rinse to remove/drain the seeds.
- Allow the diced tomatoes to dry a bit in the strainer so they're not too wet and watery when combining the rest of the ingredients.
- Add all the ingredients to a bowl and mix until well combined.
- Let chill in fridge, covered, for 4 hours or overnight before serving.
- Taste and adjust the flavor balance to your liking.
- Store in an air-tight container in fridge for up to one week.
