Time 15m

Yield 3 cups (about 8 servings)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon chopped peeled fresh ginger
1 jalapeno, seeded if desired, chopped
1/2 clove garlic, chopped
Kosher salt
1 cup finely chopped fresh pineapple, plus more for garnish
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves, coarsely chopped, plus a few sprigs for garnish
1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
1/2 cup grape tomatoes, quartered
2 ripe avocados, peeled, seeded and chopped
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
Sweet potato, blue corn and plantain chips, for dipping

Steps:

  • Place the ginger, jalapeno and garlic on a cutting board. Using a large knife, chop the ingredients together until they are minced and well combined. Sprinkle the mixture with 1/4 teaspoon salt and use the side of the knife to work the mixture into a coarse paste. Transfer the paste to a medium bowl and add the pineapple, chopped cilantro, onions, tomatoes and avocados. Toss gently to combine. Add the lime juice and 3/4 teaspoon salt and toss again. Taste and add additional salt if desired. Transfer the salsa to a serving bowl and garnish with a few pieces of diced pineapple and cilantro sprigs. Serve with the chips. Cook's Note: If you're making this salsa ahead of time, you can refrigerate it, covered, for up to 4 hours. When ready to serve, stir well, transfer to a serving bowl and garnish.

This salsa was a huge hit! I loved the combination of sweet and spicy flavors, and the tropical fruits added a nice twist. I served it with tortilla chips, but it would also be great on grilled chicken or fish.
