Fresh Tomato-Lemon Salsa
- 2 medium summer tomatoes, seeded, chopped in 1/3-inch pieces (about 2 cups)
- 1/2 cup finely diced red onion
- 1/4 teaspoon coarse sea salt
- 1 wedge (lengthwise quarter) of a large lemon
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 2 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives or Italian parsley
- Toss the chopped tomatoes in a bowl with the red onion and the salt.
- Trim the ends of the lemon wedge and pick out any seeds.
- Lay it on one of its flat sides and slice the wedge lengthwise thinly, then crosswise.
- Let the slivers of lemon fall apart, and slice or chop any long pieces into short bits.
- Scrape all the lemon into the bowl, and toss with the tomatoes.
- Then toss with the vinegar, oil, and chopped herbs.
- Spread the marinade over grilled tuna rollatini, or serve as a condiment for other grilled or steamed seafood.
