Chipotle Peach Salsa. A very special spicy salsa for fresh peach season. The flavor is so addictive. Fresh tomatoes, juicy sweet peaches, sweet onion, cilantro and chipotle chiles. Everything you want in a robust salsa.
I received my case of Fresh Colorado Western Slope Peaches this week and have been enjoying every single sweet juicy peachy bite.
For those of you who aren’t familiar with the state of Colorado, we live on the Eastern side of the Rocky Mountains, referred to as the front range.
Our Colorado peaches are grown in the western part of our state in the area of Palisade, Colorado near Grand Junction. The same area where our Colorado Wineries are located. We call this The Western Slope. And we call our peaches, Palisade peaches or Western Slope Peaches.
I call them “beyond exquisite”.
Hot days and cool nights give us exceptional fruit and some pretty decent wine if I don’t say so myself.
So, when there’s only two of us, how on earth do I manage to use up all of those peaches? One of my favorite way is to make this Spicy Peach Salsa Recipe.
Recipe for Salmon with Peach Salsa
This spicy peach salsa is not only delicious used as a typical salsa for dipping chips, but we love it over salmon fillets. The salmon fillets are simply seasoned with salt, pepper and smoked paprika. Roasted in the oven for 20 minutes at 400 degrees and you’ve got an easy and exciting main course salmon meal.
This peach salsa also works very well with pork. I grilled pork chops last night and served them topped with a spoonful of my peach salsa recipe. Delicious.
And of course, have some tortilla chips on hand. You’ll want to dip, dip and dip some more. And enjoy every beautiful fresh bite.

So what makes this spicy peach salsa recipe so good? Lots of fresh chopped tomatoes, Chipotle Peppers, cilantro, sweet onion, lime juice and that all important splash of apple cider vinegar.

peacho de gallo. ? !
I now un-apologize for every goofy thing I’ve ever said around you.
I like it.
Great balls of fire! Sounds spicily delicious 🙂 I bet that peacho de gallo was great on the pork chops. Maybe on some pulled pork tacos…yum! I really like this peacho de gallo recipe. I’m having a teeny bit of fun saying peacho de gallo. Try typing it fast five times 😉
Lea Ann,
Sounds and looks yummy…
I have another thought for your peaches… I made a salad for myself with bite sized pieces of peach, cucumber and avocado. Tossed it with a little Paul Newman’s Ceasar salad dressing.
Looks fantastic 😛
Looks fantastic 🙂
Yum! I made a simular salsa when I lived in California , but mine did not have the roasted Hatch chilis and adobo. I love this!!
What a cute and perfect bowl! I love the idea of PEACHO de gallo! I always get a jar of the Smokey Peach Salsa at Trader Joe’s cuz I just love the extra sweetness from the peaches. YUM YUM!
So jealous. Colorado doesn’t have Trader Joes. :-/
