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 jalapeƱo 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 is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I'll try using less mango next time.

This grilled mango salsa was a hit at my last party! The flavors of the grilled mango, red onion, and cilantro were so fresh and vibrant. I especially loved the smokiness that the grilled mango added to the salsa. It was the perfect complement to gri
