Discover a New Sensation: Spicy Mango Salsa Pasta

I’m excited to share a unique and flavorful recipe with you today – Spicy Mango Salsa Pasta! The combination of sweet mango, tangy salsa, and spicy flavors creates a vibrant and unforgettable dish that will bring a burst of excitement to your taste buds.

Ingredients:

  • penne pasta (250g)
  • ripe mango, diced (1)
  • tomatoes, chopped (2)
  • red onion, finely diced (1/2)
  • jalapeño, seeds removed and finely chopped (1)
  • lime, juiced (1)
  • fresh cilantro, chopped (a handful)
  • garlic, minced (2 cloves)
  • olive oil (2 tbsp)
  • salt and pepper to taste

Kitchen Tools:

  • large pot
  • skillet
  • mixing bowl
  • chef’s knife
  • cutting board

Start by cooking the penne pasta according to the package instructions in a large pot. While the pasta is cooking, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and diced red onion, sautéing until fragrant.

In a mixing bowl, combine the diced mango, chopped tomatoes, jalapeño, lime juice, and chopped cilantro. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Once the garlic and onion are cooked, add the mango salsa mixture to the skillet, stirring to combine.

Once the penne pasta is cooked al dente, drain it and add it to the skillet with the mango salsa mixture. Toss everything together until the pasta is well coated in the flavorful sauce.

Serve the Spicy Mango Salsa Pasta warm, garnished with extra cilantro leaves and a squeeze of fresh lime juice for an added burst of citrus. This dish is perfect for a quick weeknight meal or a vibrant dish to impress guests at your next dinner party.

The approximate total weight of the cooked dish is 800g, with 4 servings. Each serving weighs around 200g. The approximate calorie count per serving is 350 calories.

One unique tip for this dish is to sprinkle some crushed red pepper flakes on top before serving to add an extra kick of heat to the Spicy Mango Salsa Pasta.

I encourage you to give this recipe a try and feel free to adjust the spice level or ingredients to make it your own. Enjoy the explosion of flavors in this innovative and delicious dish!
