Open in Pepper →A Bowl Of Mango Makes Dinner Easy
A ripe mango, some red onion, a little lime, and suddenly plain chicken or a piece of fish tastes like you planned it. Salsa is the fastest way to make a weeknight plate look like something.
Cooks on Pepper reach for these when the grill is on, when the shrimp is thawed, or when they need one bright thing to carry a simple supper in July.
Every recipe here is either the salsa itself or dinner built around it — the classic mango, red bell pepper and onion salsa, shrimp tacos, ginger seared salmon, lemon ginger chicken with pineapple mango salsa, pork chops with white wine rice, and a scotch bonnet version if you want heat.
Quick Tips
- 1
Pick a firm mango
Choose one that gives just slightly at the stem end; too soft and the dice turns to mush after 5 minutes of stirring.
- 2
Soak the red onion
Cover diced red onion in cold water for 10 minutes, then drain, so it stays crunchy without the sharp bite.
- 3
Salt and rest it
Add a big pinch of salt and the lime juice, then let the salsa sit 15 to 20 minutes so the juices come together.
- 4
Cut the dice even
Aim for a 1/4-inch dice on mango, pepper, and onion so every spoonful has a little of each.
