This nectarine salsa combines sweetness with heat. I’ve always loved the marvelous contrast between a hot, smoky piece of meat and a cold, fruity salsa, and this version featuring nectarines does not disappoint. A basket of crispy tortilla chips is the only thing that pairs better with this fresh fruit salsa. Keep it in mind if you have a few peaches to use this summer.
Ingredients
- 1 cup finely diced nectarine
- ½ cup finely diced red bell pepper
- 1/3 cup finely diced onions
- 2 tablespoons finely diced jalapeno pepper
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
- 1 pinch cayenne pepper
- 1 pinch freshly ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Combine nectarine, bell pepper, onions, jalape?o pepper, and cilantro in a medium bowl. Stir in lime juice, olive oil, salt, and cayenne pepper. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Refrigerate to let flavors develop, 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Step 2
Stir in black pepper before serving. Add a pinch more salt if needed.
Chef’s Note:
You can use any stone fruit in this salsa, but nectarines are my favorite.
