Spicy Mango Salsa Recipe

This was awesome...but, I only used the recipe as a guide. I diced up one mango, one peach, and used one small can of pineapple tidbits, two scallions, half of a jalapeno pepper, diced very small, one teaspoon of minced garlic from the jar,a sprinkle or two of ground ginger, about a teaspoon of dried cilantro, half fresh lime juice and half pineapple juice (from the tidbits can) to equal 1/4 cup...mixed all together and let it sit in the fridge for about 2 hours. Made chicken tenderloins on the George Forman, then cooked in skillet with teriyaki sauce to heat. After chicken was done...heated salsa in micro for 1 minute, poured over chicken. Served with teriyaki rice and green beans...WAS AWESOME!!!!!

I would've given this salsa at least 4 stars, if it had not been for the overpowering taste of the grated ginger. The ginger taste was too strong for the delicate flavors of the peaches and mangoes. I'll try this one again, minus the ginger...then it will be great! Also, half the recipe is *more* than enough for my family of three.

I love peaches, but I wasn't too fond of this combination. Their taste was rather overwhelming. I would try it again with less peaches, or, a different variety that would better complement the mango. Also, being a fan of spicy food I had to increase the chillies to 5.

This was great! I took the seeds out or the serrano peppers, because I thought it would be too spicy, but it wasn't spicy at all, so I think next time I'll leave the seeds in. I also used all mango, since my two mangoes gave me 4 cups, and I think it's better with just mango (more expensive, yes- but it's totally worth it!).

This recipe is very tasty. I was looking for a sweet and spicy topping for chicken. This fit the bill wonderfully. The mangoes and peaches I used were not very sweet, so I added about two teaspoons of sugar. I used a pinch of ground ginger, pinch of salt too. Jalapenos instead of Serrano peppers and cilantro instead of basil. It takes a while to chop everything up though, but worth it. I let it chill about three hours and didn't feel like cooking the chicken by then, so I made turkey wraps with cream cheese on tortillas and added the salsa. Delicious! Will definately make again.

I thought this might be a little "out there" and "too exotic" in taste but since I like things that are different I gave it a try. I'm so glad that I did! It was great! The ginger and mango make a perfect combination. I tried it w/ fresh cilantro instead (lots of it) and more lime juice. Thank you Tom!

I felt there was too much basil. Next time I will definitely go with the cilantro instead. If I do use basil again, I'll probably go with half the amount. As it is though, I'd say it works best topping a main course rather than as a dip for chips.

Did not use ginger or basil. This recipe was awesome and had just the right amount of kick. Wish it had more of a "salsa" consistency.

This recipe got rave review but I changed it slightly from the original recipe. I decrease the amout of garlic to 1/4 tsp and the chile peppers to 1/4 tsp (about 1/2 of pepper). The original amount of garlic was overpowering and I was making this for a large group so I did not want to make it spicy. It got rave reviews at the party I brought it to.

This was some really good salsa. I had to make a few changes because I didn't have fresh ginger, mango & peaches. I used powdered ginger, sliced mango from a jar and 2 8oz cans of crushed pinapple. I also substituted the basil for cilantro. It came out great. I served it over blackened salmon and my family loved it. Next time I will try making it with fresh ingredients.

really good. i can't get enough mango and love fresh ginger. i added avocado and the juice of one lemon for sweetness. it did take longer than ten minutes to prepare, though.

Fast, easy, and insanely good.

Excellent. I will make this again. It was a perfect addition to a BLSL grilled chicken breast. I used one jalapeno, and it was spicy enough for us. I also only used one lime. It makes a lot of salsa, but I think I ate at least a cup, by myself. I also tried it out on some plantain chips before dinner, and one led to another, then another, lol! Thanks for sharing!

This was pretty good but has room for improvement.

a tangy twist on salsa!

It smelled delicious...but the taste just didn't deliver.

This salsa is a real winner! Really, it won best salsa of seven judged in a contest at a family gathering. I made a few changes: I used cilantro, not basil and a banana pepper in place of the serrano. It was wonderful, just the right amount of heat, sweet and lime.

Delicious over fish!

Used cilantro and added red onion. like the idea of avocado next time...

love it! I prefer cilantro to the basil and I add extra spice depending who'll be eating it.
