1/2 cup diced, seeded green bell pepper
1 green chili pepper, seeded, chopped (see note)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 garlic clove, crushed

Cook's Note: Because hot peppers contain oils that can burn your eyes, lips and skin, protect yourself when working working with peppers by covering one or both hands with plastic gloves or bags. Be sure to wash your hands thoroughly before touching your eyes or face.
