Being an Arizona girl means many things. 1- I’m always down for a margarita. 2 – anything below 80 degrees is considered cold. 3 – Pico de Gallo is a way of life.
I take my salsa very seriously. Similar to this restaurant style Chipotle Salsa, it needs to be fresh, perfectly spicy and topped with a splash of lime juice. These things are very important and seeing as how I call for fresh pico de gallo is 2387429834% of my recipes, it was high time I post my perfect pico!
So now you’ll have the perfect topping for Enchiladas, Brown Rice Bowls, Fiesta Fries, Avocado Toast and you can even toss it with some avocado and turn it into Guacamole Salsa!
Pico de Gallo
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds ripe tomatoes cut into 1/4- to 1/2-inch dice
- 1/2 large white onion finely diced (about 3/4 cup)
- 1 to 2 jalapeño chilies finely diced (seeds and membranes removed for a milder salsa)
- 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro leaves
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- Kosher salt
Instructions
- In a large bowl combine the diced tomatoes, white onion, jalapeño, cilantro and lime juice. Gently toss to combine.
- Taste and season with salt as needed. Add extra jalapeño if you want a bit more zip.

Nice! Fresh homemade pico de gallo is the best!
I can basically eat pico de gallo by the spoonful. Damn, girl. This hits the spot.
I love this! Have you tried first charring your jalapeño on a grill/regular gas stove before slicing into salsa? Brings in so much flavor! Gonna whip this pico up ASAP.
Mmm, Gaby! Pass me some chips and I could eat that whole bowl! By myself. No sharing. Is that bad?
My husband is going to love this, especially with home made chips.
Margaritas, warm weather, and pico + guac = YES, please!! This looks perfect & pinned!
Now you are really speaking my language!!!!! Now I just need to it get warmer!!
Doesn’t get much better than this…
I’m with you on all 3 accounts, and I’m a Texas girl! Pass me a marg and some chips for this amazing pico! 🙂
I love pico de gallo, especially on tacos and burritos. The New England winter is getting to me, but soon enough I’ll be sitting on my back deck with my flip flops on and a margarita in my hand. Summer can’t get here soon enough.
We love pico!! So fresh and delicious.

[…] Toppings make the burger, don’t you think? Sometimes it’s easy to get stuck in a burger and topping rut. Lots of times I just top my burger with some cheese and ketchup. That’s what I’ve done for so many years – but it’s easy to change the game with a few fun toppings. This juicy chicken burger is not only stuffed with shredded cheddar cheese, cilantro and jalapeños, it’s enhanced even more with the addition of a spoonful of guacamole and a dollop of sour cream and some pico de gallo.
