1
Prepare the Vegetables
Wash all the produce thoroughly under running water. Dice the tomatoes, red onion, and jalapeño pepper into small, uniform pieces. Remove the seeds from the jalapeño if you prefer less heat.
2
Chop the Cilantro
Rinse the cilantro under cold water, then chop it roughly, discarding the thick stems.
3
Juice the Limes
Cut the limes in half and use a citrus juicer or your hands to squeeze out the juice into a small bowl, making sure to remove any seeds.

4
Combine Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, red onion, jalapeño pepper, and chopped cilantro.
5
Season the Mixture
Add the lime juice, salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the vegetable mixture. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients evenly.

6
Serve
Transfer the Pico de Gallo to a serving bowl and serve immediately with tortilla chips or as a topping for tacos, grilled meats, or salads.
