A winning combination
During the summer, we often crave fresh, light, and easy-to-prepare meals. But let’s be honest — classic salads can sometimes get a little boring.
That’s why today we want to invite you to try something different: peach salad with chicken and walnuts. A refreshing dish full of contrast, flavor, and color that combines sweet and savory in a truly delicious way.
The peach: sweet, juicy, and versatile
Peaches are aromatic, juicy, and slightly acidic — the perfect ingredient to add a special touch to everyday dishes.
At El Navarrico, we carefully hand-peel only the best peaches, preserving them in their own light syrup so you can enjoy their full flavor any time of the year.
