Fresh Pico de Gallo

Prep Time 15 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes
Makes 3 cups

Ingredients

  • 4 Roma tomatoes diced
  • 1/2 white onion finely diced
  • 1 jalapeno seeded and minced
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • Juice of 2 limes
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Combine the tomatoes, onion, jalapeno and cilantro in a medium bowl.
  • Add the lime juice and salt and stir gently to combine.
  • Let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes so the flavors meld and the salt draws out the tomato juices.
  • If the mixture looks watery, drain it briefly in a fine mesh strainer before transferring to a serving bowl.

Good to Know

Make this the morning of, not the day before; fresh tomato breaks down fast in the fridge.
