Ingredients

Servings
  • ½ cup white vinegar
  • ½ cup lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper if desired for some heat
  • ½ cucumber diced
  • 2 bell pepper diced - Use red, yellow, or orange, or a combo. Green is fine, but the color will be boring
  • 3 banana peppers diced
  • 1 teaspoon basil fresh, chopped

Instructions

  1. Add the vinegar, lemon juice, sugar, salt and crushed red pepper (if using) to a wide pan. Bring to a quick boil, then reduce heat and simmer about 5 minutes, or until the liquids reduce by about a half.
  2. Add the cucumber and peppers. Stir and cook a couple of minutes. Remove from heat.
  3. Let sit about 30 minutes to get that quick pickling.
  4. Stir in the basil and serve.
  5. You can store this in the fridge for at least a month or longer.
