Grilled Salmon with Fresh Peach Salsa

F or me, this grilled salmon with fresh peach salsa is a perfect summer meal.  First, it is grilled, and then it is full of fresh summer produce.  Being from Georgia, peaches are really big this time of year, and they make wonderful salsa – and a lot of other wonderful things as well.  When using peaches in salsa, you are basically replacing the tomatoes with peaches.  Obviously, peaches are a bit sweeter than tomatoes, which makes the salsa great with grilled meats.  I especially like it with grilled salmon, but it would be good with chicken or pork as well.

  1. I love this peach salsa. This is a great way to dress up any plain grilled protein. In the summer I always grill salmon and I would also love it on grilled chicken.
