Grilled Peach and Tomato Salsa image

This no-fuss fruit salsa is the essence of summer. Charred, ripe peaches and fragrant tomatoes are tossed with garlic, fresh lime juice, cilantro and jalapeno peppers (for a little heat). It's a slightly smoky, refreshing salsa that's miles away from any canned version. Try this salsa as-is, with grilled chicken and fish, or use it to top my personal favorite: slabs of grilled halloumi.

Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 ripe peaches, halved and pitted
3 medium tomatoes, halved
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, plus more for grilling
3 tablespoons lime juice
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 jalapeno, seeded and minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill or grill pan for cooking over medium-high heat. Gently toss the peaches and tomatoes with the oil until coated.
  • Place on the preheated grill and cook, turning occasionally, until fruit is juicy and has charred grill lines running across, about 6 minutes total. (Depending on the size of your grill, you may need to do this in batches.) Transfer to a cutting board and let cool, 20 minutes.
  • Cut the peaches and tomatoes into 1/2-inch dice, then combine with the lime juice, garlic, jalapeno, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper.
  • Let stand for 15 minutes, then stir in the cilantro. Taste, season with additional salt and pepper if needed and serve.
