Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup strawberries, hulled and diced
- 1 cup mango, peeled and diced
- 1/2 cup red onion, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced
- Juice of 2 limes
- Salt to taste
- Optional: 1 avocado, diced (for added creaminess)
Instructions
- Step 1: In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced strawberries and mango. Gently toss them together to mix the flavors without mashing the fruit.
- Step 2: Add the finely chopped red onion and minced jalapeño to the bowl. Stir carefully to incorporate all the ingredients evenly.
- Step 3: Fold in the freshly chopped cilantro and the juice of two limes. The lime juice will add brightness and help preserve the freshness of the pico de gallo.
- Step 4: Season with salt to taste, adjusting according to your preference. Mix again to ensure all flavors are well combined.
- Step 5: If using, gently fold in the diced avocado just before serving for an extra creamy texture. Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to let the flavors meld together. Enjoy with tortilla chips or as a topping on your favorite dishes!
Notes
- To store your Strawberry Mango Pico de Gallo, keep it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days, but be mindful that the avocado will brown quickly if included. This dish is best enjoyed fresh, so there’s no need to reheat; simply serve it cold or at room temperature for maximum flavor and refreshment. For a delightful serving suggestion, pair it with tortilla chips as a zesty appetizer or use it as a vibrant topping for grilled fish or chicken. A chef's tip: to enhance the flavors, allow the pico de gallo to chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before serving, as this helps meld the ingredients beautifully.
