Ingredients
Scale
- 2 to 3 ripe peaches, pitted and diced
- 1/2 red bell pepper, diced
- 1/4 cup red onion, finely diced
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- Juice and zest of 1 lime
- 1 small garlic clove, grated
- 1/2 jalapeño, minced (adjust to taste)
- 1/4 tsp sea salt (plus more to taste)
- Optional add-ons: diced avocado, pineapple, mango, cucumber, or green onions
Instructions
- Prepare your produce: Wash all produce. Pit and dice the peaches, and finely dice the red bell pepper, red onion, and jalapeño.
- Mix the salsa: In a medium bowl, combine the peaches, red bell pepper, red onion, minced jalapeño, chopped cilantro, grated garlic, lime juice and zest, and sea salt.
- Stir gently: Mix to combine without breaking up the peaches too much. You want them to maintain their shape.
- Adjust to taste: Taste and adjust the salt, lime, or jalapeño as needed.
- Chill: Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to let the flavors meld.
- Serve: Enjoy with tortilla chips, on grilled chicken or fish, or spooned over tacos or grain bowls.
Notes
- Substitutions: Use canned peaches in juice (drained) if fresh aren’t available. Replace cilantro with parsley or basil for a different flavor profile.
- Add-ins: Stir in diced avocado for creaminess or chopped cucumber for extra crunch.
- Make ahead: Best served within a few hours, but can be made up to 1 day in advance and kept refrigerated.
