Mango Salsa
Description
The salsa begins by peeling and dicing medium-ripe mangoes to achieve a juicy and sweet base. This is combined with finely diced red onion and chopped cilantro to add sharpness and herbal notes. Fresh lime juice and zest provide acidity and a citrus aroma that lift the flavors. A small amount of grated garlic and minced jalapeño add savory depth and mild heat. The mixture is salted lightly with sea salt to balance the sweetness of the mango and enhance all flavors.
This fresh mango salsa offers a contrast of sweet, tangy, and spicy elements and a crisp, juicy texture. It can be chilled ahead of serving to allow the flavors to meld and is versatile as a topping on grilled chicken, fish tacos, or simply served with tortilla chips as a refreshing dip.
