Description
This easy mango salsa is fresh, bright, and packed with sweet and savory flavor. Juicy mango, creamy avocado, and zesty lime make it perfect for tacos, chips, or grilled dishes.
Ingredients
- 1 ripe mango, peeled and diced
- 1 jalapeño, finely diced (remove seeds for less heat)
- 1/4 small red onion, very finely diced
- 1 avocado, diced
- 1 small garlic clove, finely grated (optional)
- Zest of 1 lime
- Juice of 1 lime, to taste
- Salt, to taste
- 1–2 tbsp fresh cilantro, finely chopped
Instructions
- Add the diced mango, jalapeño, red onion, and avocado to a medium bowl.
- Add the grated garlic if using, lime zest, lime juice, and salt. Toss gently to combine.
- Fold in the chopped cilantro carefully so the avocado stays intact.
- Let the salsa rest for 5 minutes, then taste and adjust the lime juice or salt as needed before serving.
Notes
- Serve with tortilla chips, tacos, grilled chicken, or fish.
- For extra heat, leave some jalapeño seeds in the salsa.
- Best enjoyed fresh, but leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 1 day.
- To prevent browning, press plastic wrap directly onto the surface before storing.
