1
Prepare the Onions
Peel the red onions and slice them thinly. You can use a mandoline slicer for uniform thickness.
2
Make the Pickling Liquid
In a medium saucepan, combine lime juice, orange juice, water, salt, sugar, and black peppercorns. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the salt and sugar dissolve completely.
3
Combine and Pickle
Place the sliced onions in a jar or a bowl. Pour the warm pickling liquid over the onions, ensuring they are fully submerged. Let them cool to room temperature.
4
Refrigerate
Once cooled, cover the jar or bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, but preferably overnight for the best flavor.
5
Serve
Before serving, toss the pickled onions with fresh cilantro leaves. Use as a topping for tacos, salads, or any dish you desire.
