Welcome to a fresh take on a classic favorite! This Zesty Tropical Guacamole combines the creamy goodness of avocado with the sweet and vibrant flavors of mango, creating a dip that's perfect for any occasion. Whether you're hosting a summer BBQ or just looking to spice up your taco night, this guacamole will transport your taste buds straight to a tropical paradise.
The star of our dish is the humble avocado, providing a rich and creamy base that pairs beautifully with the other ingredients. Adding a mango introduces a natural sweetness that contrasts the creaminess, making each bite exciting. A bit of red onion gives a punchy, sharp taste, while cilantro lends a fresh, herbaceous note. Freshly squeezed lime juice not only prevents browning but also brightens the flavors. A touch of sea salt and ground cumin enhances and balances the overall taste. To add a little heat, we use jalapeño, and garlic adds a savory depth.
This guacamole pairs beautifully with crispy tortilla chips or as a topping for fish tacos. Try it on grilled chicken breasts or as a spread on a turkey sandwich. For a refreshing twist, serve it alongside a pineapple or watermelon salad.
First things first, grab your ripe avocados and carefully cut them in half. Remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl. Immediately, you want to squeeze that lime juice over the avocado. Not only does this prevent the avocados from turning brown, but it also infuses a lovely tang right from the start.
Now, take a fork and gently mash the avocados. You don't want to overdo it; leaving some chunks gives the guacamole a delightful texture. Next, toss in the diced mango, red onion, and cilantro. Sprinkle in the sea salt and cumin for seasoning.
For a bit of heat, add the minced jalapeño. Adjust the amount according to your spice preference. Finally, throw in the minced garlic, and give everything a good stir until well combined. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary, and there you have it—a bowl of vibrant, zesty tropical guacamole!
