Easy Pickled Jalapeño Recipe

Pickled jalapeños- A very simple recipe, go very well with Mexican dishes, as a pizza topping, with wraps, with burger, list is endless. I am a very big fan of these crunchy, sweet, tangy and spicy jalapeños, which actually need just 10 minutes to prepare. Isn’t that great? I have been eating store bought jalapeños until I tired this recipe. I promise you will also never go back to jarred jalapeños again once you try these making at home.

These jalapeños are so much better and healthier as they do not contain preservatives and artificial color. You can adjust the amount of sugar as per your taste but remember longer these are left refrigerated, the sweeter they become. These jalapeños can be stored refrigerates up to 2 months or might be longer. Give this simple recipe a try and Enjoy!!!
