Keyword: mango pico de gallo recipe
Servings: 2 cups

Ingredients

  • 1 large mango cubed
  • onion finely diced
  • 1 Roma or On the Vine tomato diced
  • ½ cup cilantro chopped
  • juice from ½ a lime
  • jalapenos diced
  • 2 garlic cloves peeled and minced
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients by hand. Season with salt to preference.
    Optional - Using a food processor (ingredients not cut): Combine the onion, cilantro, jalapeno, and garlic in the food processor. Pulse a couple times until a course, chunky texture is reached. Fold in the diced mango, tomato, lime juice, and salt to taste by hand.
  • Let the mango pico de gallo sit for at least 20 minutes before serving. Best served room temperature. Store in the refrigerator for 3-4 days for optimal freshness.

Notes

  1. This mango pico de gallo is on the spicier side as 1 1/2 jalapenos were used. You can use 1 jalapeno for a milder alternative.
  2. Be sure not to add the tomatoes and mangoes to the food processor when combining as this will result in the pico de gallo being mushy.
  3. Serving size provided was measured in cups as mango sizes can be different depending on type used. For the large mango I used in combination with the other ingredients, I get roughly 2 cups.
