Peel and slice the mangoes into thin strips or cubes, depending on your preference. Place them in a large salad bowl.
Peel the cucumber, cut it in half lengthwise, and scoop out the seeds using a spoon. Slice the cucumber into thin half-moons and add them to the bowl with the mangoes.
Finely slice the red chili (remove seeds if you prefer less heat) and the red onion, then add both to the bowl.
Chop the fresh cilantro and mint leaves, and mix them into the bowl for a burst of freshness.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, honey, salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the mango salad and gently toss everything together until well coated.
Serve immediately as a light and flavorful appetizer or side dish. Enjoy!
