Instructions
- 1
Make the pickled jalapeños: combine the white wine vinegar, water, sugar, and 1/2 tsp kosher salt in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring until the sugar and salt dissolve, about 2 minutes. Pour the hot brine over the sliced jalapeños in a small jar or heatproof bowl and let them sit at room temperature while you prepare the rest of the dish, at least 20 minutes.
