Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 whole (medium-sized) Fresh peaches
- 2 whole Jalapeños
- 1 whole (medium-sized) Red bell pepper
- 1 small Red onion
- 0.5 cup (chopped) Fresh cilantro leaves
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 tablespoon Honey

Instructions
1. Wash and peel the peaches, then dice them into small cubes (about 1/4 inch). Place the diced peaches in a large mixing bowl.
2. Finely dice the jalapeños, removing seeds and membranes for less heat, or leaving them in for a spicier salsa. Add them to the bowl with the peaches.
3. Dice the red bell pepper into small, even pieces and add to the mixing bowl.
4. Finely chop the red onion and freshly chopped cilantro. Add them to the bowl with the other ingredients.
5. In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, honey, salt, and ground black pepper until well combined.
6. Pour the lime juice mixture over the diced ingredients, gently tossing everything together until evenly coated in the dressing.
7. Taste the salsa and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt or honey if desired.
8. Cover the mixing bowl and refrigerate the salsa for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
9. Serve the Sweet Hot Peach Salsa chilled or at room temperature with tortilla chips or as a topping for grilled chicken, pork, or fish.
