My salsa recipe is so easy to make and requires no cooking at all. Salsa adds vibrant colours to chicken or fish and of course Mexican dishes and as a dip for tortillas.
No need to fuss around roasting or char-grilling peppers, just buy a jar of ready char-grilled ones and apart from a bit of chopping your all set to go.
So simple you don't really need a recipe - just throw the lot into a bowl as you go.
Chop into small dice a red onion, halve a few baby cherry tomatoes and finely chop one red chilli.
Take a few char-grilled red and yellow peppers from a jar and also chop into dice.
Season with a small pinch of sea salt and a pinch of freshly ground black pepper. Pour over a glug of extra virgin olive oil - say about a tablespoon or two depending on the amount of the ingredients you used and give it all a mix.
Leave for at least half an hour at room temperature before using.
Just before serving add a few chopped coriander leaves and add a squeeze of lime juice and have a taste.
Serve with whatever takes your fancy - I served mine with pan-fried chicken and freshly baked crusty bread for dipping and mopping.

I bet the breaker soaked with the juice from the salsa was yummy :)
