Ingredients:
2 large lemons |
1 tablespoon sugar |
1 lb cherry or grape tomatoes (3 cups), halved or, if large, quartered |
3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives |
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper |
Directions:
1. Finely grate enough zest from 1 lemon to measure 2 teaspoons. Trim ends of both lemons, then stand lemons on a cut side and cut peel, including all white pith, from lemons with a sharp paring knife (discard peel). Cut segments free from membranes, then cut segments crosswise into 1/4-inch pieces. Toss lemon segments gently with sugar in a bowl.
2. Stir in remaining ingredients and zest, then let stand, covered, at room temperature 15 minutes (to allow flavors to develop).
