This easy pico de gallo recipe is a classic for good reason. It pairs with just about everything! My tip is to let it chill for an hour or two before serving to help the flavors blend. Also, it's best to serve it the same day that it's made. -Jeannie Trudell, Del Norte, Colorado

Tips:

  • Select ripe and flavorful tomatoes: Use fresh, ripe tomatoes for the best flavor. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and have a slight give when you squeeze them gently.

  • Chop the ingredients finely: Dice the tomatoes, onions, cilantro, and habaneros into small pieces so that they are easy to eat.
  • Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and lime juice to taste. You may also want to add a pinch of cumin or chili powder for extra flavor.
  • Chill before serving: Pico de gallo is best served chilled. This allows the flavors to meld together and become more pronounced.

Conclusion:

Habanero pico de gallo is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used to add flavor to a variety of dishes. It is perfect for tacos, burritos, nachos, and enchiladas. It can also be used as a salsa for chips or as a topping for grilled meats or fish.
