Serrano peppers are small, slender chili peppers with a bright, sharp heat that is hotter than a jalapeño. They are a staple in Mexican cooking, where they are used raw in salsas and pico de gallo, or cooked into sauces, stews, and marinades. Their firm flesh and clean, grassy heat make them versatile in both fresh and cooked dishes.
Nutritionally, serrano peppers are very low in calories and provide vitamin C, vitamin A, and dietary fiber, along with capsaicin, the compound responsible for their heat. Because they add bold flavor for very few calories, they are a useful ingredient in calorie-conscious cooking.
