I've bought two different tubs of pico de gallo at our local walmarts and both times they have been mushy and near close to expiration. So this last time I said enough is enough and I decided to attempt to make my own pico de gallo. I looked through a few recipes and got a general idea of what goes into it and I just started throwing things together. There's nothing better than fresh crunchy pico de gallo. Here is the ingredient list that I put together....
2 tomatoes (seeded) cut into cubes
1/4 of large red onion
2 medium garlic cloves
4 tbsp cilantro (4 or 5 stem & leaves)
1 jalapeno (fresh or diced in a jar) for more heat you might want to put a little more than just 1
Put all these ingredients into the food processor and chop.
Then add
1 tsp of salt
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (or regular)
Juice from 2 whole lemons
And tonight we'll put this yummy pico de gallo over diced grilled chicken and sour cream all wrapped up in a small flour tortilla. Walla!
