Mango Salsa Ingredients
Mango: the star of this salsa! If you’re having a tough time finding a ripe mango, you could also substitute for papaya or peach.
Pro-Tip: to find the perfect fresh mango, look for one that is plump and round, slightly soft but not mushy. I find mangos that are more on the unripe side work best in salsas because they are more sturdy.
Avocado: avocado is creamy and can take any salsa to the next level!
Red onion: the diced red onions add a mild bite to the salsa. If you want to minimize the “oniony” flavor, you can marinate them in some olive oil and lime juice while you prep the other ingredients.
Cilantro: fresh cilantro is best for this recipe, if you need a substitute you can use some fresh chopped parsley instead.
Lime: fresh squeezed lime juice adds a nice bright citrusy flavor!
Tomatoes: I used cherry tomatoes for this recipe, however, any tomato you have on hand will work.
Jalapeño: you can control the heat in your salsa by either removing the seeds of the jalapeño or leaving them in! If you want even MORE spice, try using a serrano pepper instead.
How to Make Salsa
1. Add the ingredients to a bowl. Add the red onion, lime juice and zest, and olive oil to a mixing bowl and let it sit while you prep the other ingredients (about 5 minutes).
2. Mix the salsa. Gently mix in the diced mango, avocado, cherry tomatoes, jalapeño, and cilantro.
Spoon into your serving dish and serve!

I highly recommend serving it with Jalapeño Lime Pan Seared Chicken!

How do you keep avocado from turning brown?
Avocado’s turn brown when they are exposed to air. To slow down the browning process, brush a little lemon or lime juice across the sliced avocado and seal in an airtight container. This will delay the browning process for roughly a day.
