Charred Jalapeño, Mango & Kiwi Salsa
Ingredients
1 large, firm-ripe mango, peeled and diced
3 Zespri Green Kiwis (or SunGold Kiwis), peeled and diced
1 medium avocado, diced
½ cup red onion, finely diced
1 large jalapeño
¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
2 tbsp fresh lime juice
½ tsp Tajín (or chili-lime seasoning)
Salt to taste
Instructions
- Char the Jalapeño (The Secret Step): For incredible depth of flavor, place the whole jalapeño directly over a gas burner or under the oven broiler for 3-4 minutes, turning until the skin is blistered and slightly blackened. Let it cool, remove the seeds, and finely mince.
- Mellow the Onions: In a medium bowl, combine the diced red onion and fresh lime juice. Let sit for 5 minutes (this removes the raw onion bite).
- Combine: Add the diced mango, kiwi, avocado, charred jalapeño, and cilantro to the bowl with the onions.
- Season & Toss: Sprinkle the Tajín and a pinch of salt over the top. Use a rubber spatula to gently fold the salsa together, being careful not to mash the avocado or kiwi.
- Serve: Serve immediately with tortilla chips, or spoon generously over grilled white fish, salmon, or chicken tacos.
