Mango Slaw Recipe Recipe

Ingredients

Slaw

• 3 cups shredded purple cabbage (or use a slaw mix with carrots)
• 2 cups shredded firm mango, chilled before shredding
• 0.5 cup chopped cilantro, thin stems ok
• 0.25 cup thinly sliced red onion (or sub green onions)
• 0.5 jalapeno, finely minced (optional)

Dressing

• 1 tablespoon orange zest
• 0.25 cup orange juice
• 1 teaspoon lime zest
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 0.5 teaspoon salt, more to taste

Instructions

Prepare the Slaw

1. Peel mango with a vegetable peeler, then shred or grate, or slice into thin strips and place in a large bowl.
2. Shred or thinly slice the cabbage and add it along with all remaining ingredients to a large bowl.
3. Add orange zest and lime zest. At this point you can refrigerate until serving time.

Finish and Serve

1. Right before serving, add the orange juice, lime juice, and salt. Toss well.
2. Taste and adjust salt, spice level, and lime juice to taste, and serve!

Notes

• For best results, chill the mangos before shredding—they'll be easier to work with.
• This slaw makes an excellent topping for fish tacos, grain bowls, or grilled chicken.
• Add more jalapeno if you prefer extra heat, or omit it entirely for a mild version.
