Mango Pepper Salsa
Jalapenos are the most popular chile peppers in the US. This is probably due to the availability and versatility of the chile. Jalapenos have a balanced combination of flavor and heat.
The demand for these have caused breeders to develop a broad range of varieties. You can now get jalapenos with various heat level and sizes. These can be used in salsas, stuffed, or eaten straight with cheeseburgers (my personal favorite).
Ingredients:
1 ripe mango, pit removed and finely diced
1 small red bell pepper, seeded and finely diced
1 jalapeño, seeded and finely chopped (add more if not spicy enough)
1/3 cup finely diced red onion
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
juice of 1 lime
Kosher salt, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions:
YIELD: Serves 4
Combine the mango, red bell pepper, jalapeño, red onion and cilantro in a bowl. Squeeze in the lemon juice and season to taste with salt and pepper. Let it sit for about 10 minutes before serving. The salsa can be prepared a day in advance.
