Description
A bright and refreshing mango salsa with sweet mango, crisp red onion, and a touch of heat from jalapeño. Perfect for chips, grilled fish, or as a topping for tacos.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ripe mangos, diced
- 1 small red onion, finely chopped
- 1–2 jalapeño peppers, minced (seeded if desired)
- 1 bunch of cilantro, chopped
- Juice of 2 limes
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Peel and dice the mangos into small, even pieces. Finely chop the red onion and mince the jalapeño(s). Chop the cilantro and squeeze the limes.
- In a medium bowl, combine the diced mangos, chopped red onion, minced jalapeño, and chopped cilantro. Pour the lime juice over the mix and sprinkle salt over the top.
- No cooking required. Stir gently to combine all ingredients. Taste and adjust salt or lime. Let the salsa sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes to let flavors blend, or chill briefly if you prefer it cold.
- Give the salsa a final stir. Add more chopped cilantro or a touch more lime if needed. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve with tortilla chips or over tacos, grilled fish, or chicken.
Notes
Use ripe but firm mangos for the best texture. Let the salsa sit to let the flavors meld, and stir in fresh lime and cilantro before serving if refrigerated.
