Mango Salsa
Description
The topping blends ripe mango chunks with diced red bell pepper and red onion to create a mix of sweet and savory crunch. Finely diced jalapeño adds a controlled heat, which can be adjusted according to preference by using more or fewer peppers. Fresh cilantro and lime juice provide a fragrant herbal note and lively acidity, while sea salt balances the overall flavor.
The ingredients are simply combined and best when allowed to rest at least 30 minutes to let the flavors marry. The salsa can be used as a topping for tacos, grilled chicken, or seafood or enjoyed with tortilla chips. Its fresh, bright qualities make it a refreshing counterpart to rich or spicy dishes.
Store leftover salsa in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. Beyond this, the mango may become mushy, so it is best consumed soon after preparation.
Ingredients
- 2 Mango diced (about 3 cups, large ripe
- 1 red bell pepper , seeds removed, diced

- 1 jalapeño , seeds and membranes removed, diced (for more heat add another jalapeno)

Notes
- Allow the salsa to rest for at least 30 minutes before serving for better flavor integration.

- Adjust the heat level by modifying the quantity of jalapeño according to taste.
