Air-Fryer Roasted Peach Salsa

"Roasting" the peaches brings out their natural sugars, while the jalapeño's mild heat balances the flavors to create a sweet and spicy salsa. Serve this healthy salsa with tortilla chips for an easy appetizer, or use it as a topping for meat and fish.

Ingredients

  • 1 red bell pepper

  • ½ - 1 jalapeño or serrano pepper, halved

  • 4 ripe peaches, pitted and halved

  • 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil

  • ¼ cup fresh basil

  • 1 scallion, dark green part only, thinly sliced

  • 2 tablespoons lime juice

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. Preheat air fryer to 380°F. Remove and discard stems from bell pepper and jalapeño (or serrano). If desired, remove and discard seeds. Coarsely chop the bell pepper. Transfer the peppers to a large bowl. Add peaches. Drizzle with oil and toss to coat.

  2. Working in batches as necessary, place the peaches and peppers in an even layer in the air-fryer basket and cook until lightly browned; 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer the peaches and peppers to a wire rack to cool, about 15 minutes.

  3. Chop 4 peach halves into 1/2-inch pieces and set aside. Transfer the remaining peach halves and peppers to a food processor or blender. Add basil, scallion, lime juice to taste and salt. Pulse until finely chopped. Stir the chopped peaches into the salsa.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
