Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces ripe mangoes
- 1 piece lime
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Peel the mangoes and slice the flesh into thick wedges, making sure to remove the pit.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, chili powder, honey, olive oil, and sea salt to create a basting sauce.
Brush the mango wedges with the sauce on all sides, reserving a small amount for after grilling.
Place the mango wedges directly on the grill grates and grill for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until grill marks appear and the mango is slightly caramelized.
Remove the mangoes from the grill and brush with the remaining basting sauce.
Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro if desired, and serve warm or at room temperature.
