Cooking Instructions
- 1
Chop the tomatoes and onion into small cubes.
- 2
Place the chopped ingredients in a large bowl.
- 3
Finely chop the cilantro, including the stems if you like. Personally, I like to chop the stems as well for extra flavor in the pico de gallo. But if you prefer, you can just chop the leaves, and add it to the other ingredients.
- 4
Cut the jalapeño peppers in half and use a small spoon to remove the seeds to reduce the heat. If you want a spicier flavor, you can leave some seeds. Once deseeded, slice them lengthwise into thin strips and then chop into small cubes. If you don't like jalapeños, you can substitute with árbol or serrano peppers.
- 5
Add the chopped peppers to the bowl with the other ingredients and mix well. Add salt to taste and enjoy. 😉
- 6
Don't forget to wash the tomatoes, peppers, and cilantro thoroughly. Make sure the cilantro is well-drained so it doesn't add excess water to your preparation.

Pico de Gallo Pico de Gallo
Pico de gallo (PEEkoh-deh-GAHyoh - literally "rooster's beak") is a favorite of Mexican food lovers everywhere.I love it for its zesty flavor and versatility and enjoy it both as a salsa-type thing and a salad-type thing (I could eat it by spoonfuls all by itself). Well drained, it's a great addition to a Mex-inspired tabbouleh or couscous (all the better with a little Cotija cheese sprinkled on top), and leftovers, if there are any, are great for adding zip and depth of flavor to soups and stews. x -
