CARIBBEAN FISH WITH MANGO SALSA



Caribbean Fish With Mango Salsa image

Now for something completely different, how about a little Caribbean/Creole feel? This can be done with fish or with scallops and will wake up the little taste buds. Please forgive me, I am not a real recipe follower, and I change it around all the time. Hope this works for you, love to hear about it. I never wrote it as a recipe, sort of a seat of the pants guy. One item to complete it that I may add is Zatarain's Caribbean Rice®, and in this I add 1/2 red bell pepper and 1/4 cup of fresh pineapple.

  • Use a variety of fruits: This will give your salsa a more complex flavor. Some good combinations include mango, pineapple, papaya, and kiwi; or strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries.
  • Add some heat: If you like spicy salsa, add a chopped jalapeño or habanero pepper. You can also add some ground cumin or chili powder.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as cilantro, mint, or basil, can add a refreshing flavor to your salsa. Be sure to chop them finely before adding them to the salsa.
  • Chill the salsa before serving: This will help the flavors to meld together.

Conclusion:

Caribbean four-fruit salsa is a delicious and refreshing salsa that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Serve it with chips, tacos, burritos, or grilled fish or chicken. Enjoy!
