We’ve got great news for you guys. Local Lime has a new summer pico salsa coming soon to the restaurant!
Want even better news? The folks at the restaurant were kind enough to share the recipe with us, and we’re pretty sure you’re going to love it.
We won’t waste anymore of your time when we know all you care about is how to make it. So, here goes:
Local Lime Summer Garden Pico
The ingredients:
•1.5 cup halved cherry tomatoes (Local Lime tip: only use super-sweet summer tomatoes like Sweet 100 or Sun Gold or the best available at your local farmers market. It’s risky to buy tomatoes before late May.)
•1 cup small diced red bell pepper
•1/2 cup fresh corn off the cob
•1/4 cup small diced poblano pepper
•1/4 cup fine sliced spring onion
•1/2 cup canned black beans rinsed and strained
•3 tablespoons olive oil
•2 tablespoons lime juice
•1 tablespoon minced jalapeño
•1 tablespoon habanero pepper sauce (Local Lime tip: like Melinda’s)
•1 teaspoon salt
•1/2 teaspoon cracked pepper
The process:
Combine the ingredients and refrigerate for up to three days or serve immediately. It’s great with steak, seafood, chick or as a dip with avocado and chips.
Local Lime is at 17815 Chenal Parkway, Suite F-105. It’s one of the more popular Mexican restaurants in town, and it’s no surprise why with plenty of fresh salsas, taco plates, fajitas and salads, among many other options. Not to mention, it’s not a bad place to enjoy Happy Hour.
Look for this salsa now at the restaurant! It will be featured in a new special, that started Saturday, grilled New York strip with summer garden pico, drunken beans, corn tortillas and lime.
