Here's another terrific salsa, which we make when someone gives us a big bag of tomatoes and peppers from their garden. It's delicious on fish, but also on just about everything else–chicken, scrambled eggs–or just used as a dip. —Martha Greenlaw

Ingredients:

2 ripe tomatoes, seeded and chopped
1/3 cup diced green pepper
1/3 cup diced yellow pepper
1/3 cup diced red onion
2 tablespoons, plus 2 teaspoons olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 large garlic clove, crushed through a press or minced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
salt and freshly ground black pepper
four 6-ounce swordfish steaks, about 1-1/2 inches thick

Instructions:

1. In a large bowl, combine the tomatoes, green pepper, yellow pepper, red onion, 2 tablespoons oil, lime juice, vinegar, garlic, basil, and thyme. Season with salt and pepper to taste. The salsa can be made up to 3 hours ahead.
2. Build a hot charcoal fire or preheat a gas grill. Brush the fish with the remaining 2 teaspoons of oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill, turning once, until nicely charred and the fish is just cooked through, about 5 minutes per side.
3. Spoon the salsa over the fish and serve.

Note: Swordfish steads are often quite large, so simply cut the large piece of fish into serving-sized pieces.
