Stuffed Tomatoes with Peaches, Corn, Cucumbers, and Basil

A stunning chopped salad unites several summer standouts -- peaches, corn, cucumbers, basil -- with the sweetly acidic flavor of vine-ripened tomatoes.

Ingredients

Makes 8

  • 8 ripe medium beefsteak tomatoes
  • 2 ripe peaches, pitted and cut into 1/2-inch pieces (2 cups)
  • 3 Kirby cucumbers, peeled, seeded, and cut into 1/2-inch pieces (1 1/3 cups)
  • Kernels from 2 ears corn (1 1/2 cups)
  • 6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons coarse salt, plus more to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, plus more to taste
  • 1/2 cup shredded fresh basil leaves, plus sprigs for garnish

Directions

  1. Slice off tops of tomatoes (about 1/2 inch). Scoop out the seeds and ribs, and coarsely chop. Stir together chopped tomatoes, peaches, cucumbers, corn, oil, 1 tablespoon lime juice, salt, and pepper. Let stand for 15 minutes. Taste and adjust for acidity, adding up to 1 tablespoon more lime juice. Stir in basil.
  2. Season inside of tomato shells with salt and pepper. Fill tomatoes with tomato mixture, and garnish with basil sprigs. Serve immediately.
