- 6 fresh peaches pitted and diced
- 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1 medium shallot minced
- 3 tablespoons red onion thinly sliced
- 1-2 teaspoons jalapeno pepper finely minced (seeds and veins removed)
- 3 tablespoons fresh cilantro chopped
- Sea salt and black pepper to taste
Combine Ingredients: In a large glass or non-reactive bowl, mix the peaches, lime juice, shallot, red onion, jalapeno, and cilantro. Adjust Spiciness: Start with 1 teaspoon of jalapeno and add more if you want extra heat. Season: Add sea salt and black pepper to taste. Stir to combine. Chill: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight to allow the flavors to meld. If short on time, let it sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes. Serve: Pair this salsa with grilled chicken, fish, pork, tacos, or tortilla chips for a versatile, flavorful side.
- Soaking red onions in water for 10-15 minutes before adding them to the salsa will mellow their flavor if desired.
- Fresh peaches work best, but if needed, drained canned peaches can be substituted.
- The salsa can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
