Ingredients
4 ripe mangoes
2 tablespoons canola oil
Juice of 1 lime
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/4 teaspoon ancho or New Mexican chile powder
Finely grated zest of 1 lime
Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish, optional
Directions
- Heat the grill to medium for direct grilling. Slice the mangoes in 2 pieces from the pit. Score the flesh of the mangoes in a diamond pattern, taking care not to cut into the skin. Pop the flesh by holding the skin side and pushing up. Brush the flesh with the oil and grill, cut-side down, until slightly charred, about 1 minute.
- Transfer the mangoes to a platter and immediately drizzle with the lime juice and sprinkle with the salt, chile powder and lime zest. Garnish with cilantro leaves if desired.
