GREEN PEPPER AND TOMATO SALAD



Green Pepper and Tomato Salad image

Provided by Rachael Ray : Food Network

Categories     side-dish

Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 green bell peppers, seeded and cut into 1 1/2-inch dice
3 vine-ripe tomatoes, seeded and diced
1 small onion, chopped
1 large clove garlic, finely chopped
1/2 cup flat-leaf parsley leaves, coarsely chopped
1/2 lemon, juiced (1 tablespoon)
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and black pepper
1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 a palm full

Steps:

  • Combine peppers, tomatoes, onions, garlic, parsley in a bowl with your fingertips. Squeeze the juice of the lemon with the lemon half sitting upright. This will help prevent the seeds from falling into the bowl. The lemon juice will spill down over the sides of the lemon and the seeds will remain with the fruit. Squeeze the juice evenly over the salad. If the lemon is under-ripe, microwave it for 10 seconds before you cut into it. Next, sprinkle a tablespoon of vinegar over the salad -- just eyeball it. Drizzle the extra-virgin olive oil over the salad, add the salt, pepper and cumin. Toss again. Taste to adjust seasonings and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes. This is key to a great salad, as the tomatoes will provide most of the flavor. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and have no blemishes.
  • Use a variety of cucumbers. This will add different flavors and textures to your salad. English cucumbers are mild and crisp, while Persian cucumbers are sweeter and have a thinner skin. You can also use Japanese cucumbers, which are long and thin with a slightly bitter flavor.
  • Use fresh green peppers. Green peppers add a nice crunch and a bit of spice to the salad. Look for peppers that are deep green and have no blemishes.
  • Chop the vegetables evenly. This will help them cook evenly and make the salad more visually appealing.
  • Use a light dressing. A heavy dressing will overwhelm the flavors of the vegetables. A simple vinaigrette or lemon-herb dressing is a good choice.
  • Chill the salad before serving. This will help the flavors meld and make the salad more refreshing.

Conclusion:

This tomato, cucumber, and green pepper chopped salad is a refreshing and healthy side dish that is perfect for summer. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious salad that will be a hit at your next party or potluck.
