Another magazine find. The lemon rind and juice get utilized in this salad. I love the lemon oil fragrance in the lemon skin! I had it as a side dish with shrimp scampi and it went well. Nice with sea salt. Ingredients:
2 pints cherry tomatoes, halved |
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped |
1 large lemon |
1/2 cup olive oil |
salt |
cracked black pepper |
Directions:
1. Place tomatoes and cilantro in large bowl.
2. With a vegetable peeler, carefully remove peel from lemon, leaving white pith behind.
3. Toss with tomatoes.
4. Squeeze lemon to make 1/4 cup juice; pour in oil and whisk with lemon juice until blended.
5. Pour over tomatoes; toss lightly, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
