A simple salsa verde that's easy to whip up and will turn a simple chicken breast or fish fillet into something special. It's also delicious on new potatoes, salads and steaks.

Ingredients

4 anchovy fillets
1 tbsp capers, roughly chopped
1 garlic clove, roughly chopped
½ lemon, zest and juice only
90ml/3fl oz olive oil
2 tbsp flatleaf parsley, chopped
1 tbsp basil, chopped
salt and freshly ground black pepper

Method

Place the anchovy fillets, capers and garlic into a pestle and mortar and pound until broken down, then transfer to a bowl. (Alternatively, place in a sturdy bowl or mug and bash using the end of a rolling pin.)
Add the lemon zest and juice. Pour in the olive oil in a steady stream, whisking continuously to combine.
Stir in the parsley and basil and season to taste with salt and black pepper.
