Fresh Mango Salsa Ingredients
- 2 ripe mangoes, diced
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1/2 red onion, finely chopped
- 1 jalapeño, seeded and minced
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- Juice of 2 limes
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the ingredients: Dice the mangoes and red bell pepper into small pieces. Finely chop the red onion to add a sharp flavor to the salsa.
- Chop jalapeño and cilantro: Seed the jalapeño to reduce heat and mince it finely. Chop fresh cilantro leaves for an aromatic touch.
- Combine all ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, gently toss together the mangoes, bell pepper, onion, jalapeño, and cilantro.
- Add lime juice and salt: Squeeze the juice of two fresh limes over the mixture and season with salt to enhance all the flavors.
- Mix well: Toss the salsa thoroughly to ensure all the ingredients are evenly coated with lime juice and salt.
- Let flavors meld: Cover the bowl and let the salsa sit for at least 30 minutes at room temperature or in the refrigerator to allow the flavors to develop fully before serving.
Notes
- For a milder salsa, remove seeds from the jalapeño carefully as they contain most of the heat.
- Use ripe but firm mangoes to avoid overly mushy salsa.
- This salsa pairs well with grilled chicken, fish, or tortilla chips.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
- Adjust salt and lime juice to taste depending on your preference.
