Print Recipe

A vibrant and fresh salsa combining sweet peaches and mangoes with spicy jalapeño and zesty lime, perfect for grilled fish tacos or summer gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium fresh peaches, diced
  • 1 large ripe mango, diced (Ataulfo or Haden varieties recommended)
  • 1 medium jalapeño pepper, finely chopped (seeds removed for less heat)
  • ¼ cup red onion, finely diced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Juice of 1 large lime
  • 1 teaspoon honey or agave syrup (optional)
  • Salt to taste (preferably kosher salt)
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Wash peaches and mango. Peel mango with a paring knife or vegetable peeler and dice into roughly ½-inch cubes. Remove pit from peaches and dice similarly.
  2. Chop jalapeño finely, removing seeds and membranes if milder salsa is desired. Dice red onion and roughly chop cilantro.
  3. Place all diced fruit, jalapeño, onion, and cilantro in a medium mixing bowl. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the mixture.
  4. If peaches are tart, add 1 teaspoon honey or agave syrup. Season lightly with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  5. Gently fold ingredients together with a spoon or spatula, keeping the salsa chunky and avoiding overmixing.
  6. Let salsa rest at room temperature for about 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
  7. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or lime juice if needed.
  8. Drain excess liquid if salsa feels watery before serving.

Notes

Use ripe but firm peaches and mangoes for best texture and sweetness. Remove jalapeño seeds and membranes to reduce heat. Let salsa rest for 10 minutes to meld flavors. Avoid overmixing to keep salsa chunky. Drain excess liquid if watery to prevent soggy tacos. Gloves recommended when handling jalapeños to avoid skin irritation. Variations include adding grilled corn, smoked paprika, or swapping herbs like basil or mint.
