Ingredientes
- 1 cup jarred sliced peaches , drained and cubed
- 1/2 cup red onion , chopped
- 1 small tomato , chopped
- 1 medium jalapeño , chopped
- 1 tablespoon roughly chopped cilantro
- juice of 1 lime , freshly squeezed
- salt and pepper to taste
For the Salmon
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Instrucciones
- To make the peach salsa, in a medium bowl, mix peaches, onion, tomato, jalapeño, cilantro and lime juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil to pan.
- Season salmon with salt, pepper and lime juice. Add salmon to hot skillet. Cook for 5 minutes or until browned. Using a large slotted spatula, flip salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until salmon is opaque throughout but still slightly pink in the center.
- Serve immediately. Top salmon with peach salsa. Add a side of cooked vegetables and potatoes, if desired.
Notas
- Don't season the salmon until you are ready to cook it. The acidity in the lime juice can break down the flesh too much.
- You can use salmon fillets with skin on or off. If skin on, cook them skin side down first.
- Don't have your pan on too high a heat. If it's too hot, the outside will cook too quickly and the inside can remain raw.
- These pan fried salmon fillets are great to serve with peach salsa, but they're also great with my Strawberry Salsa too!
