Literally, it means "the rooster's beak". Presumably it refers to the sharp bite this hot, spicy Mexican salsa creates when ingested, just like the pecking of a rooster would feel on one's skin. The recipee includes fine chopped tomatoes, cilantro, sweet onions, garlic, lime juice, and the biting ingredient itself, JALAPENO peppers.
Here is a happy silly song that contains a reference to the ingredients.
I hope you enjoy it.
The singers, Keith and Ezra are "Trout Fishing in America" and are two of my favourite performers.

In basic form its tomatos, onions, cilantro, lime, peppers of some kind (Usually jalpenos) and sometimes bell peppers or other ingredients. It's basically a salsa for chips and can be used as a food topper.
It can also be found with fruit and other items.
