1
Dice the Vegetables
Start by washing the tomatoes, jalapeño, and cilantro thoroughly. Dice the tomatoes into small cubes and place them in a mixing bowl.
2
Finely chop the red onion and add it to the mixing bowl with the diced tomatoes.
3
Chop the cilantro leaves and add them to the bowl.
4
Remove the seeds from the jalapeño (if desired for less heat) and finely chop it. Add it to the bowl.

5
Combine Ingredients
Squeeze the juice of two limes over the diced vegetables in the bowl.
6
Add salt and black pepper to taste. Mix all the ingredients together gently until well combined.

7
Serve the Pico
Transfer the pico de gallo to a serving bowl. Serve immediately with tortilla chips or as a topping for tacos, grilled meats, or salads.
