Cooking Steps
- Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
- Core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Cut tomatoes into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Zest, then juice half the lime (whole lime for 4 servings). Cut any remaining lime into wedges.
- Peel, then cut half the onion (whole onion for 4 servings) into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
- Roughly chop cilantro.
- To a medium bowl, add tomatoes, lime juice, half the peppers, half the cilantro, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) onions, 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) sugar and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.
- To a small bowl, add sour cream, lime zest and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) water. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
