If you’ve ever made another type of quick pickle at home, making this pickled jalapeño recipe is no different. If you haven’t, don’t worry. The process is super easy. Here’s what you need to do:

1. Slice your jalapeños and stuff two mason jars full of pepper slices. Then, add a smashed garlic clove to each mason jar.
2. Next, make the brine by simmering vinegar, water, sugar, and salt over low heat until the sugar dissolves.
3. Pour the brine over the jarred peppers, let them cool to room temperature, and store them in the fridge for up to two weeks!

That’s it! If you’re feeling fancy, you could add a pinch of cumin seeds, peppercorns, mustard seeds, or a bay leaf to your brine, but I like this quick pickled jalapeño recipe best just how it is.

I made a huge batch of these pickled jalapeños last week, and let me tell you, I’ve been putting them on everything – quick sandwiches, toss-together grain bowls, salads, eggs, you name it. I urge you to try adding them to anything you’re making that could use a sweet, tangy pop of spice, but if you’re looking for specific recipes, here are some ideas:

• Tuck them into your morning breakfast burrito or breakfast tacos.
• Add them to a salad like this Healthy Taco Salad or this Watermelon Salad.
• Top them onto a veggie burger, black bean burger, or grilled portobello mushroom burger.
• Use them instead of regular jalapeño to make extra-tangy guac, pico, or mango salsa.
• Dot them onto sweet potato chili fries, vegetarian tacos, or serve with fajitas or taquitos.
• Use them to finish a spicy sandwich like these chickpea shawarma wraps or top them onto avocado toast.
• Or enjoy them straight from the jar! 🙂
