Ingredients
Scale
2 large ripe mangoes, diced
1/2 red onion, finely chopped
1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon lime zest
1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Prepare all your ingredients: dice the mangoes, finely chop the red onion, mince the jalapeño, and chop the cilantro.
In a medium bowl, combine the diced mango, red onion, minced jalapeño, and chopped cilantro.
In a small separate bowl, whisk together the fresh lime juice and lime zest.
Pour the lime mixture over the mango mixture. Add the salt.
Gently toss all ingredients together until they are evenly coated.
Cover the bowl and chill the salsa in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to combine.
Notes
For a sweeter salsa, choose mangoes that yield slightly to gentle pressure.
If you prefer less heat, remove all seeds and white membranes from the jalapeño.
This salsa works well as a healthy snack dip with tortilla chips.
