Embark on a culinary adventure with our Spicy Mango Salad, a tantalizing fusion of flavors and textures that awakens the taste buds. Begin by selecting ripe mangoes, sliced into thin strips to showcase their succulent sweetness and vibrant color.
Introduce a hint of heat with sliced jalapeños or red chili peppers, adding a spicy kick that elevates the salad’s complexity. Adjust the quantity based on your spice preference, creating a perfect balance of heat and sweetness.
Incorporate crisp jicama slices for a refreshing and crunchy element. Jicama’s mild and slightly sweet flavor provides a satisfying contrast to the boldness of the mango and the spiciness of the peppers.
Include red onion slices for a savory and pungent note, enhancing the overall depth of flavor. The red onion contributes a distinct sharpness that complements the tropical sweetness of the mango.
For a burst of freshness, add chopped cilantro or mint leaves. These herbs add a bright and aromatic quality, infusing the salad with a lively and herbaceous essence.
Create a zesty dressing using lime juice, honey or agave syrup, and a touch of chili powder. The dressing ties all the ingredients together, providing a citrusy sweetness that balances the heat from the peppers.
Gently toss the ingredients to ensure an even coating of the dressing. The result is a visually vibrant and flavor-packed Spicy Mango Salad that stimulates the palate. Serve it as a side dish for grilled meats, as a topping for tacos, or as a refreshing appetizer for summer gatherings.
Immerse yourself in the delightful combination of sweet mango, spicy peppers, crunchy jicama, savory onions, and fresh herbs. This Spicy Mango Salad is a celebration of bold and exotic flavors, offering a culinary journey that tingles the taste buds in every delectable bite.

Instructions: Spicy Mango Salad Recipes
Step 1: Place the mango cubes into a serving bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the lime juice and olive oil. Season with red pepper flakes, cilantro, shallots, salt and pepper. Whisk briefly, then pour over the mangos. Stir to coat, then cover and refrigerate for about 30 minutes to blend the flavors before serving.
The changes I made were based on availability in my kitchen. I used red onion vs shallots, 1 smaller Thai green chilli (it makes it extra spicy hot) and a full lime regardless of size. I got a rave review on my adapted version and have made it continually all summer. Thank you for the recipe!
Awesome!! Made it without the red pepper flakes first, since the friends we were making it for don’t do spicy. Still delicious. Added the red pepper the next day. Yummy!! Everyone loved it. So easy and delicious.
Easy to make. A novel Thanksgiving side dish. ;) Yum. Heat and Sweet! However we do not like it with olive oil. Another splash of juice or vinegar improves drastically.
I used only half of the pepper flakes called for in the recipe. It was still yummy and good for friends who are not so fond of really spicy foods.
This is very good
The hardest part is chopping the mangoes...and it is equivalent to our local Thai restaurant. Thanks for a great recipe!
This is an awesome recipe to have fun with. After making it many times, I don't use olive oil, scallions or red pepper. Instead, put coarsely diced mango in large bowl. Add 4-6 sliced green onions. Dice the avocados and drizzle with juice from half a lime to prevent browning. Add to mango. Put remaining lime juice in a small bowl along with 3 tbsp sweet chili sauce. Add cilantro and 1...or 2! deseeded, finely diced jalapeños. Whisk to combine and then pour over mango, gently folding everything together. Cover and put in fridge for 20-30 minutes. Mix once to blend flavors. Thanks to MIRELLE67 for the original recipe!
I would just suggest 1/2 of the red pepper flakes. It gets spicier as it sits in your refrigerator. Otherwise, I would give it 5 stars
Loved this!! So simple and tasty. Next time I'll use red onion as shallots are a bit overpowering. Chopped up little that was left over and put over grilled salmon - Yummy!!
