Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pounds underripe stone fruit (such as plums, nectarines, or peaches), pears, or mangoes, thinly sliced
1 head serrano chile, seeds removed if desired, thinly sliced
2 tablespoon unseasoned rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 bunch cilantro
4 stalks scallions, thinly sliced on a diagonal
2 stalks celery stalks, thinly sliced on a diagonal
2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
1 teaspoon low-sodium soy sauce
1 heads lime zest
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds

Steps:

Gently toss fruit, chile, vinegar, sugar, and ½ tsp. salt in a medium bowl to combine. Let sit until fruit is spicy and flavorful, about 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, gather cilantro into a bundle and cut into 2"-long pieces. Transfer to a medium bowl, add scallions and celery, and toss to combine.
Drain fruit in a fine-mesh sieve set over a small bowl; set fruit aside. Add oil, soy sauce, and lime zest to marinating liquid in bowl and whisk to combine. Pour dressing over cilantro mixture and toss to coat. Add reserved fruit and sesame seeds and toss gently to combine. Taste and season with more salt if needed.
Transfer salad to a platter and serve with lime wedges.
