Fresh, bright, and loaded with bold flavor, this classic pico de gallo is the kind of salsa that makes everything taste better — from tacos and grilled chicken to a humble bag of tortilla chips. Ripe Roma tomatoes are seeded before dicing, which keeps the final mixture chunky and vibrant rather than watery and sad. A hit of fresh lime juice and a generous handful of cilantro tie the whole thing together with that signature zing you just can't get from a jar. The jalapeño brings gentle heat that you can dial up or down depending on how many seeds you leave in. Best of all, every single ingredient here is a whole, recognizable food — no packaged blends, no mystery additives, and absolutely nothing to second-guess for anyone avoiding tree nuts. A short rest on the counter lets the flavors meld beautifully before you serve it, so try not to skip that step even when it's tempting to dive straight in.
