- Allow the pico de gallo to sit for about 10-15 minutes to let the flavors meld. If you have more time, you can refrigerate it for 30 minutes to an hour.
4. Serve:
- Serve the pico de gallo fresh with tortilla chips, tacos, grilled meats, or as a garnish for any dish that could use a fresh, tangy kick.
Tips:
- For a milder version: Remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapeños before chopping. You can also use a mild pepper like a poblano.
- Add other ingredients: You can also add a small clove of minced garlic or a dash of hot sauce for extra flavor.
- Storage: Pico de gallo is best enjoyed fresh, but you can store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 1-2 days. The tomatoes will release juices, so you may want to drain it slightly before serving again.
Pico de gallo is a refreshing and versatile addition to many dishes, and its bright flavors are sure to please!
