Servings: 4 | 45 minutes | 150 kcal

The origin of the salsa is traced back to the Aztecs, Mayans, and Incas. This version, however, gets a tropical twist with the addition of mangoes. The pairing of salsa with tortilla chips is a classic, dating back to the early 1940s in Los Angeles.

Ever since I served this salsa at a summer gathering, guests keep asking me for the recipe. It' fruity, spicy, and incredibly addictive!

Ingredients

2 pieces ripe mangoes
1 piece red onion
1 piece jalapeno
1 cup cilantro
2 tablespoons lime juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
12 pieces corn tortillas
2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

Peel and dice the mangoes. Dice the red onion. Finely chop the jalapeno and cilantro.
In a bowl, combine the mango, onion, jalapeno, cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Stir until well combined. Let the salsa sit for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Brush both sides of the tortillas with olive oil and cut them into wedges.
Spread the tortilla wedges out on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until crispy and golden brown.
Serve the homemade tortilla chips with the mango salsa. Enjoy!
