It's dressed with a zesty mixture of lime juice, vinegar, olive oil and chile pepper. Bring this salad to your next outdoor get-together. It can stand up to the heat and is totally delectable!

This salad was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think next time I'll use less cayenne pepper.
