Ingredients
Pickle de Gallo Ingredients
- 24 ounces baby dill pickles, finely diced (about 10 baby dill pickles)
- ½ sweet yellow onion, finely diced
- 1 red bell pepper, seeded and finely diced
- 2 tablespoons pickle brine, from the jar
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 serrano pepper or jalapeno pepper, finely diced
Instructions
- Stir together: In a mixing bowl, combine the finely diced baby dill pickles, sweet yellow onion, red bell pepper, pickle brine, minced garlic, and kosher salt. Stir the ingredients thoroughly until well combined to evenly distribute flavors.
- Marinate: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours. This resting period allows the flavors to meld and enhances the taste. Before serving, give the pickle de gallo another good stir.
