Summer Peach Salsa Recipe
Description
This simple Summer Peach Salsa combines diced medium peaches with diced red bell pepper, diced red onion, and minced fresh cilantro. Lime juice adds brightness, while optional minced jalapeño provides a spicy kick. Salt and black pepper are added to taste. Mixing these ingredients creates a salsa with contrasting sweet peach softness and crisp vegetable crunch.
Allowing the salsa to sit about 15 minutes enhances the melding of flavors though it can be enjoyed immediately. The recipe suggests using ripe, firm peaches, and mentions leaving the peach skin on adds color and texture but can be peeled if preferred.
This salsa is a versatile topping for grilled meats, chips, or as a fresh side dish on hot days, showcasing the balance between sweet fruit and savory seasonings.
Ingredients
- 3 medium peaches diced (see notes)
- ½ red bell pepper diced
- ⅓ cup red onion diced
- ½ cup cilantro minced
- lime juice from 1
- 1 jalapeño optional, minced
- ½ teaspoon salt more to taste, sea salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper more to taste, sea salt
Instructions
- Mix all the ingredients together in a medium-sized bowl.
- The salsa is best if you let it sit for about 15 minutes but it can be eaten right away if you are in a hurry.
Notes
- Choose peaches that are ripe but still firm to avoid mushy salsa.
- Leaving the skin on the peaches adds appealing color and texture, but peeling is optional based on preference.
- Let the salsa sit for 15 minutes when possible to allow flavors to blend.
