PREPARATION

PREPARING THE INGREDIENTS

Wash each pepper and celery stalk. Remove the tops and bottoms of each pepper and remove the seeds. Finely chop the peppers and celery stalks into small pieces.

Add the diced peppers, onion, and celery to the pan and sauté until they become fragrant and start softening, ~5-7 minutes.

SERVING THE SALAD

In a large bowl or plate, distribute a large spoonful of all ingredients evenly using a slotted spoon.

Once plated, evenly distribute the juices from the pan over the salads.

Sprinkle with the fresh chopped basil and serve.
