Ingredients
- 3 tomatoes finely chopped
- ½ cucumber finely chopped
- ½ red bell pepper finely chopped
- ½ white onion finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives finely chopped
- Juice of ½ lemon
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Place the finely chopped onion into a non-metallic bowl. Squeeze over the lemon juice, then season with the salt and black pepper. Stir thoroughly so the onion is evenly coated, allowing the acidity to soften its sharpness.
- Set the bowl aside for about 5 minutes, which helps mellow the onion while you prepare the remaining vegetables. Add the chopped tomatoes, cucumber, red bell pepper, olive oil, parsley, and chives to the bowl.
- Mix everything gently but well until the salad is evenly combined and lightly dressed. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed, adding extra salt, pepper, or lemon juice to achieve a bright, balanced finish.
