Jalapeño Peach Salsa Recipe 
8 Comments
If you've never eaten this salsa before, I know what you're thinking. I thought the same thing. "This is some weird foodie recipe."
It's not at all. I got this delicious, simple recipe from my good friend, Kim. She's a Nutritionist and a VERY good cook.
It turns out that jalapeño peach salsa is highly addictive. It's very hard to stop eating once you get started. It begins to rock after an hour of refrigeration. It's unstoppable the next day.
The soft sweet mix of the peaches and tomatoes (canned tomatoes are the best for this recipe) together with the cilantro and green heat of the fresh jalapeños dripping with the garlicky lime juice and sitting on the salty crunch of the tortilla chip...
HERE'S ALL IT TAKES
- 2 cups fresh peaches or 1 (15oz.) can peaches, drained
- 2 cups fresh tomatoes or 1 (15 oz.) can petite diced tomatoes, drained
- 1/4 cup yellow onion, finely chopped
- 3 to 4 small jalapeños, finely chopped
- 2 to 3 tablespoons cilantro, finely chopped
- 1 garlic clove, crushed or minced
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
In a large bowl, dice peaches into half inch pieces for a chunky dip. Finely chop the onion, jalapeños, garlic and cilantro. Add lime juice, cider vinegar and salt; toss well. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes or longer.
Great to make a day ahead.
Kim says this is very good on top of grilled tilapia, too.
Great spicy salsa…. thanks for sharing:)
Yum! Looks delicious. We just got invited to an impromptu family dinner party and this is what I’m going to take. Should be great alongside the grilled chicken.
Hey Teresa! (((BIG HUG)))
You know, my Uncle, who is the pickiest eater in the world, was VERY RELUCTANT to try this salsa combination.
He TOTALLY CHOWED DOWN on this salsa!
I was so glad I doubled the recipe when I took it to our family cook out.
I tried out this recipe to go with some other dishes along with the Caribbean Tuna steaks I was making. This salsa is delicious. The spice from the jalapenos pairs great with the sweetness of the peaches. I wasn’t too sure about the cider vinegar, but it adds to the acidity of the lime juice and brings everything together. Great, great recipe. I’m sure we’ll eat the whole bowl tonight!
YEAH!!! Thanks for backing me up on this recipe, Jesse.
And there’s no doubt, you’ll have that bowl empty by tonight, no doubts at all.
I tried this salsa out and it was pretty good, but there was something in the initial flavor that I didn’t care for…can’t place it though. Other than that, it’s got a nice kick to it, and I can’t stop eating it. Oh yeah, and it’s a very unique salsa recipe to boot. Thanks!
Once again great recipe. I took this to a function and it was a hit! Will have to double the recipe next time!
It keeps very well in the frig, Ebowser, so you can make it ahead of schedule.
