Ingredients

2 peaches, pitted and diced

1 to 2 fresh jalapeños, seeds removed, finely diced

1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro

2 Tbsp. fresh lime juice (from 1 lime)

1/4 tsp. kosher salt

1/2 cup packed cilantro leaves and stems

1/2 cup chopped green onion (scallions)

1/2 cup plain 2% fat Greek yogurt

1/4 cup neutral oil (such as avocado, grapeseed, or canola oil - I prefer using avocado oil)

2 Tbsp. fresh lime juice

2 to 3 Tbsp. water

1/2 tsp. kosher salt

4 (6-ounce) skin-on, center-cut salmon fillets

1 Tbsp. avocado oil

1 Tbsp. coconut sugar (or brown sugar)

1 1/2 tsp. paprika

1 tsp. chili powder

3/4 tsp. garlic powder

3/4 tsp. onion powder

3/4 tsp. kosher salt

Cooked white rice for serving

Directions

Prepare Jalapeño-Peach Salsa by combining all ingredients (peaches, jalapeño, cilantro, lime, and salt) in a medium bowl; toss to combine. Set aside.

Prepare Zesty Cilantro Sauce by combining all ingredients (cilantro, green onion, yogurt, oil, lime, 2 Tbsp. water, and salt) in a food processor. Blend until smooth with bright green specks throughout. Add an additional 1 Tbsp. water as needed to thin out to desired consistency.

Position the oven rack to the upper third of your oven; it should be about 6 inches from the broiling element at the top. Preheat broiler to HIGH.Arrange salmon fillets, skin side-down, on a large rimmed baking sheet or baking dish. Drizzle with 1 Tablespoons avocado oil. In a small bowl, combine sugar, paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper; mix to combine. Season salmon fillets generously with spice mixture.Broil the salmon fillets, rotating the pan once halfway through, until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and appears medium in the center, about 8 to 9 minutes. If you prefer your salmon well-done, leave it in for 1 additional minute.

Serve salmon over white rice with a few spoonfuls of Jalapeño-Peach Salsa and a generous drizzle of Zesty Cilantro Sauce.
