PEACH AND CUCUMBER SALSA



Peach and Cucumber Salsa image

Low calorie, fat free vegan recipe from Whole Foods; it is highly rated on their website. They suggest serving it atop grilled fish but I think it would also be great with chicken or pork tenderloin. You can make it up to 4 hours ahead of serving, just keep it in the refrigerator. I think mango and a splash of OJ would be a great addition to this recipe as well! NOTE: I just made this recipe and I added the OJ for a touch of sweetness and added a couple drops of jalapeno sauce for more kick. I also didn't care for the mint, so I changed that to optional. . .the basil was nice I thought.

Tips:

  • Utilize Fresh Ingredients: For the best flavor and nutritional value, use fresh, ripe peaches and cucumbers. Choose firm peaches with a sweet aroma and cucumbers that are crisp and have a deep green color.
  • Properly Season the Chicken: Season the chicken generously with a blend of spices and herbs. This will enhance the flavor of the chicken and make it more flavorful.
  • Grill the Chicken to Perfection: To achieve the ideal texture, grill the chicken until it is cooked through but still tender and juicy. Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  • Make the Salsa Fresh: Prepare the peach cucumber salsa just before serving to maintain its freshness and vibrant flavors. This will prevent the salsa from becoming watery or losing its crisp texture.
  • Balance the Flavors: Adjust the amount of lime juice, honey, and cilantro in the salsa to suit your taste preferences. You can add more lime juice for a tangy kick, more honey for sweetness, or more cilantro for a refreshing flavor.

Conclusion:

This grilled chicken with peach cucumber salsa recipe offers a delightful combination of flavors and textures.
