Tomatoes and peaches often come into season at about the same time, and it turns out that they go very well together. Here we marinate peaches with a little vinegar and Urfa chili to create a sweet, sour and spicy flavor combination, great for taste and health.

This makes a simple dinner, low on calories, but filling enough to keep you going after the sun sets. You can also serve this on top of a bed of arugula.

Ingredients

2 pounds large peaches, rubbed dry to de-fuzz

2 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar (6% acid)

1/2 teaspoon dried Urfa pepper flakes

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, divided

2 pounds heirloom tomatoes of various colors

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons tiny basil leaves (from a sprig’s center)

Directions

1. Cut the peach in half. Remove the pit. Cut each half into 4 wedges, then cut wedges in half crosswise, making 8 chunks. Place the peaches in a large bowl. Stir vinegar, pepper and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl to dissolve the salt. Add to the peaches and toss to coat. Let marinate 30 minutes, tossing occasionally.

2. Meanwhile, core the tomatoes. Cut each into 3/4-inch wedges. If tomatoes are very large, cut in half horizontally and cut each round into wedges (like cutting a pizza). Place tomatoes in another bowl. Toss with 1/4 teaspoon salt.

3. Add the tomatoes, oil and most basil leaves to the peaches and blend. Sprinkle with the remaining basil.
