Grilled Cherry Salsa

By Bizzy319

Grilling cherries almost caramelizes them and they add just a touch of sweetness to this spicy salsa.

Ingredients

• 4 tomatoes, divided
• 1 jalapeno pepper
• 3 cloves garlic
• 2 cup cherries
• 1/2 cup fresh cilantro
• juice of two limes
• zest from two limes
• 1 tsp. kosher salt

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.
