Ingredients:
- 1½ lb. skinless, boneless chicken thighs (about 6)
- 2 Tbsp. Cajun seasoning
- 1½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or ¾ tsp. Morton kosher salt, divided
- 3 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- 2 ripe peaches, peeled, cut into ½” pieces
- Zest and juice of 1 lime
- 1 cup cilantro leaves with tender stems
Instructions:
Step One: Toss 1½ lb. skinless, boneless chicken thighs (about 6) with 2 Tbsp. Cajun seasoning, 1 tsp. Diamond Crystal or ½ tsp. Morton kosher salt, and 1 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil in a medium bowl to coat
Step Two: Toss 2 ripe peaches, peeled, cut into ½” pieces, and remaining ½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or ¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt in a mesh sieve set inside another medium bowl to combine; set aside
Step Three: Heat remaining 2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium. Cook chicken in a single layer, turning halfway through, until charred in spots and cooked through, 12–16 minutes. Transfer to a platter
Step Four: Discard (or drink; it’s delicious!) any juice in bowl. Transfer peaches to bowl and add zest and juice of 1 lime and 1 cup cilantro leaves with tender stems and toss gently to combine. Taste peach salsa and season with more salt if needed. Spoon over chicken thighs
