Ingredients

Salsa

  • 2 cups peeled and chopped peaches
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 12 cup grape tomatoes, halved
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice

Salmon

  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • 12 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 12 teaspoons olive oil
  • 4 (6 to 8 ounce) salmon fillets
  • Lime wedges for serving
Directions
  1. Zest one of the limes. Juice the zested lime to yield 4 teaspoons of juice.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the lime zest, lime juice, avocado, strawberries, onion, cilantro, and salt to taste. Cut the remaining lime into wedges. Set the salsa and lime wedges aside separately.
  3. Prepare a grill to medium-high heat. Brush both sides of the salmon with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the salmon until just cooked through, about 4 minutes per side.
  4. Serve the salmon hot, with the salsa on top and the lime wedges on the side.
