Fresh Corn and Peach Salsa

Fresh Corn and Peach Salsa by Adam Janowski

This salsa makes a great side dish for salmon or chicken. I take a one pound salmon filet, cut it into two pieces. Brush with olive oil and sprinkled with fajita seasoning mix and bake in a 400 degree oven for about 12-15 minutes. Plate the salmon and spoon salsa on the side. Garnish with sprigs of cilantro.
