Dice the Roma tomatoes into small, even pieces and transfer them to a mixing bowl.
Finely chop the white onion and add it to the bowl with the tomatoes.
Roughly chop the fresh cilantro leaves (remove thick stems) and stir them into the mixture.
De-seed and finely dice the jalapeño pepper. Add to the bowl for a bit of heat. For more spice, leave some seeds intact.
If using garlic, mince the clove finely and mix it into the bowl.
Add the fresh lime juice and salt to the bowl. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
Taste and adjust the salt or lime juice to your preference.
For the best flavor, let the Pico De Gallo sit for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve fresh with tortilla chips or as a side for tacos, grilled meats, or any dish that needs a burst of freshness.
