Preparation

Step 1

I did this on my gas grill. Just char the tomatoes, the garlic, jalapeno and cherries – it took me about 15 minutes at a temperature around 350. It's okay to char the tomatoes - that's what gives the salsa a smoky flavor.

Let the cherries cool, then pit the cherries and add all the ingredients to a food processer and puree.

This is great not only for tortilla chips, but also on grilled chicken.
