Peach and Tomato Salsa with Ghost Chile (Grilled)

peachghostchilesalsaLooking for unique salsa with an aggressive kick? Combining the sweetness of a peach with the unparalleled spiciness of a ghost pepper and you're in for a treat. Next time you're in the mood for some heat, try this recipe. (If you want to make it milder, remove some of the seeds from the pepper).

2 fresh peaches, sliced into 1" thick pieces
1 tomato, diced
¼ tsp. sea salt
2 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil
¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
½ fresh ghost chile, chopped
1 lime, freshly juiced

Heat a grill over high heat. Sprinkle the peaches with salt and drizzle with the olive oil. Place on the grill and grill 3-4 minutes, turning often until the peaches are soft and gold.

Transfer to a cutting board and cool 5 minutes. Dice and place in a large bowl along with the tomatoes, cilantro, chili and the lime juice.

Toss well and serve immediately. (The recipe will yield two cups of salsa.)
