Notes

  • Make the Salsa all mango or all pineapple, papaya, peach or simply the greatest of classic salsas: this restaurant style Mexican salsa .
  • I add a teaspoon of honey to my fruit salsa because I prefer it a bit on the sweet side. It’s optional, and if you feel the fruit is super ripe then skip it all together.
  • Feel free to jazz up this chicken fajita recipe with guacamole, sour cream, hot sauce, cheese sauce or any topping you prefer!
