3mediumripe yellow peaches, diced
1smallcucumber, peeled, seeded, and diced
1/3cupfinely diced red onion
1smalljalapeño, seeded, minced
1/3cupfinely chopped fresh cilantro or parsley
1tablespoonlime juice

Instructions
In a large bowl, gently combine the peaches, cucumber, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, and lime juice. Season with some salt and a few grinds of black pepper, to taste. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
Warm olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. When oil is hot, season the Tilapia with salt and pepper on both sides and add to the skillet; sear fillets until golden on the outside and flake with a fork, about 3 minutes per side, depending on the thickness.
Transfer fillets to individual serving plates and top with some of the salsa. Serve extra salsa on the side.
Notes
Any mild white fish would work here, although cooking times will vary.
