Candied Jalapeno Mango Salsa

10:58 PM

Our grill has been going non stop since the beginning of spring.  We have also been eating fresh vegetable and fruit that are so readily available at farmers markets and grocery stores this time of the year, like mangoes. 


A few weeks ago, to go with some grilled chicken, I made a Candied Jalapeno Mango Salsa with fresh mangoes, pineapple, red onion, black beans, and some wonderfully sweet candied jalapeno peppers

These peppers are sweet and hot, just the added kick to an already awesome salsa.  This salsa is so delicious you will  not be able to stop eating it.Whether you eat it with chips or along side a grilled meat, you are going to enjoy this easy and quick appetizer or side dish.


Candied Jalapeno Mango Salsa
{by CookingwithK.net}

2 -3 fresh mangoes, peeled and diced (2 cups)
1 cup fresh pineapple, diced
1 15 oz. can black beans, drained
1 medium tomato, seeded and diced
1/4 cup red onion, diced
1/2 cup sliced Cowboy Candied Jalapenos (available on the pickle isle)
1 - 2 tablespoons fresh squeezed lime juice
salt and pepper to taste

In a medium bowl add mango, pineapple, beans, tomatoes, onion and candied jalapenos; toss together being careful not to mash the mango. Pour lime juice over the salsa and toss again.  Taste and add salt and pepper as needed.  Refrigerate for 2 hours.  Serve with chips or alongside grilled meat or fish.

Note:  I found the salsa is best eaten the same day you make it.

  26. Hi Kay, welcome to the hearth and soul hop. I am now following you on twitter and added you to the hearth and soul hop daily twitter list so look for updates in your twitter feed. Please add in a link to the hearth and soul hop in your blog post so more folks can share in the fun and see where you are linked up! I have never EVER even heard of candied jalapenos, but I live in the north east so they might be a regional food. I do love mango salsa and also peach and they are best made and eaten fresh! Thanks again for sharing with us on the hearth and soul hop. All the best, Alex

  30. My mouth is watering for some of this salsa right now, but I'm going to have to figure out how to get some of those candied jalapenos first! They sounded intriguing so I googled them and found several recipes, all of which sounded good. Can you buy them already made? I don't think I've ever seen them here in VA. If all else fails, my son and his family live in East TX and I'll beg them to send me a jar! :) So glad I found your lovely blog!

  31. This salsa will definitely be on the menu this week. Thanks for the idea. Found you through a linky and will now browse your blog some more for other delicious recipes.
