Description

Pear and Green Chile salsa is a lively combination of fruit and chile peppers bursting with great flavor. This fruit salsa is a perfect compliment to grilled fish, pork and chicken.

Ingredients

  • 3 pears, cored and diced
  • 1 cup fresh apple cider
  • 4 tbsps purple onion, diced
  • 1 1/2 tsps extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 poblano, roasted, peeled, seeded, diced
  • 1/2 tsp toasted oregano
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp balsamic vinegar

Instructions

In a saucepan over high heat, reduce the apple cider down to about 1/2 cup. Lower the heat and add the diced pears. Sauté for 2 to 3 minutes until the pear softens and absorbs the cider. Transfer to a mixing bowl.

In a skillet, sauté the onion in the olive oil for about 5 minutes until translucent. Add the onions to the mixing bowl along with the poblano chiles, sugar, lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, sugar and oregano. Mix to combine thoroughly.
