Mango Pico de Gallo Salsa
Description
This mango-based salsa uses a variety of diced ingredients all cut into small, even cubes to create a cohesive texture. Mango adds juicy sweetness, while red onion and jicama contribute crunch and mild sharpness. Both red and green bell peppers provide crispness and a fresh vegetable note. Serrano and jalapeno chiles give gentle heat without overwhelming the dish. Fresh cilantro leaves add herbaceousness. A dressing made from lime juice, honey, salt, black pepper, cumin, and garlic powder spices the salsa with a gentle balance of tartness, sweetness, and earthiness.
After tossing all ingredients in the dressing, the salsa is chilled to allow flavors to meld. It is best served cold or at room temperature with tortilla chips or as a topping for tacos, grilled meats, or seafood. The combination of tropical fruit, fresh vegetables, and warming spices makes this salsa distinctive and versatile.
