Salpicon (chopped Meat)

This great meat dish is a typical dish in my country. It is prepared with skirt or flank steak. The lime gives the meat a tangy lime taste, with sweet tomatoes, sweet red onions and green peppers. I like to serve it with white rice. This dish my mom would prepare it for us when we were young. She would tell us that her grandma would prepare this for them because they lived in a cattle farm so they would always have meats in their house. I began preparing this dish when my husband and I were newlyweds and he loved it. I now prepare it for my kids and they love it as well. This is a dish I know your family will love too.
