MANGO CUCUMBER SALSA

I found this recipe in a circular a long time ago and have adapted it over time. Can't remember which part of it is part of the original and what parts are my additions. This is a quick and easy side that perks up a basic grilled chicken breast or as a companion to tortilla chips. Sometimes I will top a bed of greens with leftover grilled chicken and this salsa for an easy and flavorful lunch.

Tips:

Choose ripe mangoes: For the best flavor, use ripe mangoes that are slightly soft to the touch. Avoid mangoes that are too hard or have green skin, as they will be sour and less flavorful.
Use fresh cilantro: Fresh cilantro adds a bright, citrusy flavor to the salsa. If you don't have fresh cilantro on hand, you can substitute dried cilantro, but it will not have the same flavor.
Don't overcook the chicken: The chicken should be cooked through, but not overcooked, or it will become dry and tough. Cook the chicken over medium heat until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Make the salsa ahead of time: The salsa can be made up to a day ahead of time, so you can prep for your meal in advance. Just be sure to store the salsa in the refrigerator until you're ready to serve it.
Serve with your favorite sides: Chicken with mango cucumber salsa can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, beans, tortillas, or salad. It's also a great option for a light lunch or dinner.

Conclusion:

Chicken with mango cucumber salsa is a flavorful, refreshing, and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a summer meal. The combination of sweet mangoes, crisp cucumbers, and zesty cilantro creates a delicious salsa that complements the grilled chicken perfectly.
