Tropical Salsa Fresca Recipes

Steps:

• Mix red onion, jalapeno pepper, and lime juice in a bowl. Allow to stand for 5 minutes. Mix in Roma tomatoes, cilantro, and salt; allow to stand 15 more minutes for flavors to blend.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients in a bowl.

Steps:

• Add the tomatoes, jalapeño, onions, cilantro and lime juice to a bowl and mix to combine. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Let sit at room temperature for at least an hour for all the flavors to come together.
• Set up your grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only. Drizzle the swordfish with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper on both sides. Place on the direct-heat side of the grill and cook until nicely charred, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Move to the indirect-heat side of the grill, close the lid and cook until cooked through, another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the grill to rest, about 5 minutes. Serve the swordfish with the salsa spooned over the top.

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, combine all ingredients together. Toss thoroughly. Let stand 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Add the pineapple, mango, tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, garlic, lime juice, and salt to a bowl. Cover and let chill for at least 1 hour before serving so the flavors can marry together.

Steps:

• Place minced onion in a bowl and cover with cold water. Add vinegar and let sit for 5 minutes or longer. Drain and rinse with cold water.
• In a medium bowl, combine remaining ingredients and stir in onions. (If your tomatoes are full of flavor, you won't need lime juice.) Ideally, let stand at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes before eating so that flavors will blend and ripen.

Steps:

• Place the ginger, jalapeno and garlic on a cutting board. Using a large knife, chop the ingredients together until they are minced and well combined. Sprinkle the mixture with 1/4 teaspoon salt and use the side of the knife to work the mixture into a coarse paste. Transfer the paste to a medium bowl and add the pineapple, chopped cilantro, onions, tomatoes and avocados. Toss gently to combine. Add the lime juice and 3/4 teaspoon salt and toss again. Taste and add additional salt if desired. Transfer the salsa to a serving bowl and garnish with a few pieces of diced pineapple and cilantro sprigs. Serve with the chips. Cook's Note: If you're making this salsa ahead of time, you can refrigerate it, covered, for up to 4 hours. When ready to serve, stir well, transfer to a serving bowl and garnish.
