1 large shallot, thinly sliced into rings
3 garlic cloves, finely grated
1/2-1 Scotch bonnet chile or habanero chile, thinly sliced crosswise, seeds removed if less heat is desired
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 ripe but firm mangoes, peeled, cut into ½-inch-thick spears
1 English hothouse cucumber, halved lengthwise, seeds removed, thinly sliced crosswise
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Toss shallot, garlic, chile, lime juice, and salt in a medium bowl. Add mangoes and cucumber and toss again. Cover; let sit at room temperature until shallot and cucumber are softened and juicy and flavors come together, 45-60 minutes.
