Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by washing and peeling two ripe mangos, then dice them into approximately ½-inch cubes. Finely chop one cup of red bell pepper, ¼ cup of green onions, and one medium jalapeño, adjusting the heat level by including or omitting the seeds. Finely chop ¼ cup of fresh cilantro.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, gently toss together all the prepared ingredients: the diced mangos, chopped red bell pepper, green onions, jalapeño, and cilantro. Use a spatula to mix them carefully, ensuring not to mush the mangos.
  3. Taste your salsa and add the finishing touches by pouring in 2 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lime juice, along with 1 teaspoon of salt and ½ teaspoon of black pepper. Mix thoroughly after each addition.
  4. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator. Let your Mango Salsa chill for at least 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and intensify.
  5. Once chilled, give the salsa a gentle stir to re-combine any ingredients that may have settled. Serve your Mango Salsa for Fish Tacos in a vibrant bowl.
