Coarsely chop onion and place in a medium bowl.

Add peaches, papaya, jalapeño pepper, cilantro, lime and lemon juices, and 1 tbsp (15 mL) olive oil to onion. Mix gently. Cover and set aside.

Preheat broiler or barbecue. Grill fi llets approximately 8 minutes, depending on their thickness (10 minutes per 1"/2.5 cm thickness). When done, the fish should flake easily when tested with a fork. Top with peach salsa and serve immediately.
