Pickled Red Onions in Hot Pepper Lime Juice

Pickled Red Onions in Hot Pepper Lime Juice

INGREDIENTS:

* 1 medium red onion, cut into thin strips
* 1 Tablespoon white vinegar
* 1 Serrano pepper, chopped
* 1 teaspoon kosher salt
* 1 Tablespoon sugar
* approximately 3/4 cup lime juice

DIRECTIONS:

Pack the onion, white vinegar, pepper, salt and sugar in a glass jar. Pour in the lime juice and gently press the onions down. The juice should cover the onions; add more lime juice if necessary.

Cover and refrigerate overnight (feel free to shake the jar a couple times). Taste a little bit of the liquid and adjust salt and sugar, if desired.

Use to top tacos, burgers, soups, etc.
