Pico de Gallo

This tasty treat was actually made up several weeks ago now... I just remembered it when browsing through my iPhoto.  It preceded a nice feed of tacos.

I just made it up and I can't remember the exact amounts of anything... but I will attempt to write out the recipe below.

Pico de Gallo

Tasty snack

Pico de Gallo

2 Cubanelle peppers (green), seeded, finely diced
1 large tomato, seeded, finely diced
1/4 red onion, finely diced
juice and zest of 1 lime
~ 1 tsp coarse sugar
~ 1 tsp coarse sea salt
chopped fresh cilantro, to taste
freshly ground black pepper, to taste

 
Toss and serve with tortilla chips.  This recipe is quite juicy.  If you prefer it drier, I think you could combine the salt, peppers and tomato, wait for 20 - 30 minutes, drain the excess liquid, and then continue adding the remaining ingredients (adding more salt, to taste).
