I've always loved the marvelous contrast between a hot, smoky piece of meat, and a cold, fruity salsa; and this version featuring nectarines did not disappoint. In fact, the only thing that pairs better with this fresh fruit salsa is a basket of crispy tortilla chips.

I'm not a big fan of fruit salsa, but this one is actually really good. The nectarines add a nice sweetness that balances out the spiciness of the jalapeños.
