Peach, corn and hatch green chile salsa combines all the best summer produce in one beautiful dish! It comes together fast and can be used in a million ways.

Trust me when I say this one is a crowd-favorite! I’ve had so many readers tell me they love this recipe and/or request that I make it for parties. It features all of the best late summer produce and is so simple to make: just chop everything up and toss it together! The hardest decision will be figuring out how to serve it up.

Here’s what you’ll need to make it:

Ingredients

  • Peaches. Leave them out on the counter for a few days if necessary so they soften.
  • Green Chiles. I love using roasted hatch green chiles, but these can be regional. Other good options are poblanos. Roast and peel before using.
  • Corn. Fresh is best, but I’ve also made It with frozen fire-roasted corn and love that option too.
  • Cilantro & Lime for brightness and extra flavor.

Peaches

Colorado is blessed with the best local Palisade Peaches and we go totally bananas for them in late summer every year. Regardless of where they come from, just make sure they are ripe.

Run the knife around the pit and twist the halves apart. You should be able to pull out the pit, but if not just cut it out verrrry carefully. Chop the peaches really small so they mix well with the other ingredients (see photo).

It’s totally fine if the cubes fall apart a bit. I actually kind of prefer that for a more rustic look!

What are Hatch Green Chiles?

The “Hatch” chile name actually refers to the location where it was grown in New Mexico. I love the mild heat they add to this salsa to balance out the sweetness from the peach. Hatch green chiles are a relative of the Anaheim chile.

They’re traditionally fire-roasted and peeled which lends well to the flavors here. I prefer the texture of roasted peppers over raw in salsas. If you would rather do a bell pepper and keep it raw, just be sure to chop it very finely.

How to Use Peach Salsa

The easiest (and fastest!) way is to enjoy this is to scoop it up with tortilla chips but don’t stop there. Here are a few more ideas:

  • Spoon it over a piece of grilled fish
  • Use it as a topping for burrito bowls
  • Serve it over crostini with ricotta cheese for an appetizer

Notes

  • The equipment section above provides affiliate links to things I use often in my kitchen and love.
  • Corn can be added raw or cooked! When it’s at peak freshness in the summer, I use raw because it has a nice bite to it but this is really personal preference. I’ve also used frozen fire-roasted corn and that works great too.
  • If you can’t find hatch chiles in your area, poblanos would work great. Just make sure to roast it and peel it first. Jalapeños could also work!
