This easy Pico de Gallo Salsa is healthy & packed with flavor - filled with yummy tomatoes, cilantro, lime and just the right amount of spice. Use it for tacos, fish, or for tortilla chips - either way, it's delicious!!
Chop the tomatoes and red onion into small pieces. Place in a bowl with room for mixing.
Remove the seeds from the chili and chop it. Include as many seeds as you like, for your desired spice level. Set the rest of the seeds aside in case you wish to add more spice. Add to the bowl.
Chop the cilantro and add to the bowl. Squeeze over the lime juice and season with oregano and cumin. Taste test, adjust seasoning if needed and season with salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste.
Set aside for 30 minutes or longer. Just before serving, taste test again and adjust seasoning accordingly. Serve with chips, tacos, as a sauce for fish or meat or use to top a salad.
Notes
Instead of serrano peppers you can use jalapeños or habanero, or another kind of chili. Just adjust the amount accordingly to your level of spiciness.
Adjust the spiciness accordingly - I use half of the seeds from serrano peppers but depending on how spicy you like it and how spicy your peppers are you will might need to adjust this.
