Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces ripe mangoes
- 1 piece English cucumber
- 1 piece red bell pepper
- 0.5 piece red onion
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro
- 1 piece lime
- 1 piece jalapeño pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Peel the mangoes, remove the pits, and dice the flesh into small cubes.
Wash and dice the cucumber into small cubes. If using a standard cucumber, peel it and remove the seeds before dicing.
Core and dice the red bell pepper into small pieces.
Finely chop the red onion and cilantro.
Remove the seeds and ribs from the jalapeño pepper (if a milder salsa is desired) and finely dice it. Be cautious while handling the jalapeño, and wash your hands after to avoid irritation.
Juice the lime into a small bowl to extract fresh lime juice.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced mango, cucumber, red bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, and jalapeño.
Drizzle the fresh lime juice over the mixture. Add the salt and black pepper, and gently toss everything together to combine.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. You can add more lime juice, salt, or pepper to suit your preferences.
Let the salsa sit for 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together, or serve immediately. It pairs perfectly with tortilla chips, grilled chicken, fish, or as a topping for tacos.
