Ingredients

▢ 2 large fresh peaches pitted, skinned, and diced; about 2 and ½ cups when diced
▢ ½ bell pepper¹ diced
▢ ¼ cup diced onion²
▢ ⅓ cup chopped fresh cilantro
▢ 3 cloves of garlic minced
▢ 1 small jalapeño pepper seeded and minced³
▢ juice and zest of 1 lime
▢ ½ teaspoon salt⁴

Instructions

In a large bowl, combine the peaches, bell pepper, onion, cilantro, garlic, and jalapeño pepper then stir to combine.
2 large fresh peaches, ½ bell pepper1, ¼ cup diced onion2, ⅓ cup chopped fresh cilantro, 3 cloves of garlic, 1 small jalapeño pepper
Add the lime juice, lime zest, and salt, then stir to distribute evenly. Taste and add more salt, if needed. Allow to chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours for flavors to marry. Serve chilled or at room temperature with chips. Store leftovers covered tightly in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. I do not recommend making this salsa too far ahead of time nor freezing it.

Notes

Bell pepper: I used a red pepper, but you can use any you prefer.
Onion: I used a sweet white onion, but I also like to use red onions in my salsa, too. Use your preference.
Jalapeño pepper: I usually leave some of the seeds in when I make salsa because I like a little heat. Removing all the seeds will keep the heat down, and keeping them all will make this salsa very spicy.
Salt: this measurement is for table/Kosher salt. If you prefer sea salt, reduce amount to about ¼ teaspoon. You can always add more salt if it's not salty enough for you after you taste it.
