Pico de gallo on a table with tortilla chips.

Easy, Authentic Pico de Gallo + Fun Variations


Description

Pico de gallo is a classic Mexican accompaniment. But take the basic recipe and mix it up any way you like, and you've got yourself one versatile spoonful of flavor!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 Roma or plum tomatoes, seeds removed, diced small
  • ½ small onion, diced small
  • 2-4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2-4 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
  • 1 serrano chili pepper, seeds and rib removed, minced (if you like it super spicy, add more chilis!)
  • salt

Instructions

  1. Combine all ingredients, and let flavors marry for an hour.
  2. Homemade salsa takes on more flavor the day after it's made. Just be mindful of those chilis - they get hotter the longer it sits!
