Grilled Mango Salsa image

A mango's rich flavor is deepened through grilling in this salsa full of contrasts. It also works if you do not want to grill the mango. I love mango salsa whether or not the mango is grilled, so if you don't feel like grilling, you can still get a great salsa with these ingredients. Grilling, whether on an outdoor grill, a griddle or a grill pan, deepens the flavor of an already-rich-tasting fruit. I love the contrasts in this salsa: the crisp jicama with the soft, juicy mango; the sweet fruit; the spicy chile; and the grassy cilantro. Serve with fish or chicken.

Time 15m

Yield About 1 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large ripe but firm mango
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil or grapeseed oil
2 small Roma tomatoes (5 to 6 ounces) cut in small dice (about 2/3 cup diced tomato)
1/2 small jicama (about 4 ounces), peeled and finely chopped (about 2/3 cup)
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
Salt to taste
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 or 2 serrano or jalapeño peppers, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Prepare a medium-hot grill. Cut mango down flat sides of the seed to get 2 large flat pieces. Brush exposed surface lightly with oil and place on grill. Grill for about 6 minutes, until light grill marks appear. Remove from heat. With the tip of a paring nife, cut thin slices down to the skin but not through it, then cut a herringbone pattern across the slices. Push on the skin side so the cut mango pops out, then cut away the dice from the skin. Cut dice smaller if they are larger than 1/2 inch. Transfer to a medium bowl.
  • Add remaining ingredients to bowl and toss together. Allow to sit for 15 to 30 minutes so flavors will ripen.

This salsa was a little too spicy for my taste, so I added a little bit of sour cream to it. The sour cream helped to cool down the salsa, and it was perfect. I'll definitely be making this salsa again with sour cream.

I added a little bit of honey to this recipe to make it a little sweeter. The salsa was delicious, and the honey added a nice touch of sweetness. I'll definitely be making this salsa again with honey.

I used frozen mango for this recipe, and it turned out great! The salsa was just as flavorful as if I had used fresh mango. I'll definitely be using frozen mango again the next time I make this salsa.

I'm not a big fan of cilantro, so I omitted it from this recipe. The salsa was still delicious, and I loved the combination of flavors. I'll definitely be making this again.
