Meal preppers, this one’s for you: a simple stovetop recipe that stores well in the fridge for several days and is delicious cold or at room temperature. Capsicum and cucumber stay crunchy, while the cayenne kick doesn’t quit. Looking for a protein boost? Try tossing in some shredded cooked chicken or steamed prawns.
