Pico de gallo clásico

Ingredientes

• 1 1/2 pounds ripe tomatoes, deseeded and diced ((about 6-8 medium tomatoes ))
• 1/2 medium white onion, finely chopped ((about 1/2 cup))
• 1 jalapeno or serrano chile, halved, seeded and finely chopped
• 1/2 cup coarsely chopped cilantro leaves and top part of stems
• 2-3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
• Kosher or sea salt, to taste (about 3/4 teaspoon)

Preparación

1. 1

   Place the tomatoes, onion, chile, cilantro, lime juice and salt in a bowl and toss well.

2. 2

   For best results, allow it to sit for 5 - 10 minutes (or up to 30 minutes) before serving so the flavors have time to meld and develop.
