Fresh Pico de Gallo is so easy to make, there should never be an excuse for buying it again! For this I’m using Roma tomatoes, but when fresh (home-grown) tomatoes are is season, please substitute them.
My pico recipe is a fresh tasting accompaniment that goes great on any taco, such as my Pork Tenderloin Tacos or my Southwest Seasoned Skirt Steak Tacos. However, I make it a lot just to use as a quick dip for chips, or as a relish for grilled fish or chicken.
Versatility
One of the things I love about this pico de gallo is the versatility. Just make this recipe, and add a cup of diced mango and spoon over some grilled halibut. Cut some watermelon into chunks and mix with this pico and make a quick, refreshing summer salad. Spoon some in with some chicken and cheese and make an easy enchilada bake. The possibilities are endless, and easy!
