Spicy Peach Salsa Recipe
One of the easiest sides to spice up any party is a delicious and festive salsa dip! Wouldn’t you agree? This spicy peach salsa is absolutely gorgeous! The combination of colors creates a beautiful presentation, while the delicious blend of sweet and spicy flavors makes it a wonderful addition to simply prepared fish, chicken or pork dishes.
Serve with foil packet citrusy orange roughy or other minimally seasoned fish, chicken or pork recipe. This can also be served in place of regular salsa with tortilla chips.
Tip: Soak the red onion in a cup of water for 10-15 minutes before using to reduce its strong flavor and odor.

I’ve looking for a new type of salsa, and have always wanted to tryout a peach recipe. I’ve tried to find a good one at the store, but I don’t like all the sugar and preservatives they use. Now I can make it myself.
