Ingredients

  • 1 mango fresh
  • 1 bell pepper green
  • 1/2 red onion small
  • 1 red chili pepper medium hot
  • 2 Tablespoons cilantro freshly chopped
  • 1 lime juiced
  • 1 Teaspoon honey
  • salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Peel and clean the onion, mango, bell peppers and cut into small cubes.
  • De-seed the red peppers and cut into small rings.
  • Mix together with the cilantro, lime juice and honey and add salt and pepper to taste if needed.
  • Let the mango salsa rest for a couple of minutes so the flavors come together and meld. Keep refrigerated until serving.

Notes

Use ripe mango: A soft, fragrant mango gives the best flavor and texture.
Chop evenly: Small, uniform pieces make the salsa easy to eat and scoop.
Let it rest: A short rest time helps all the flavors come together.
Perfectly spiced: If you aren’t sure how much chili to add, add half a chili pepper at a time. It’s easy enough to add more.
In a rush? You can quickly chop the ingredients roughly in a food processor instead of dicing them.
