Ingredients

Instructions

  • Peel and slice the mango into large pieces and pierce with skewers along each side (see photo in the post above).
  • Brush each side with avocado oil.
  • Heat a grill over medium heat and brush avocado oil on the grates.
  • Cook the mango for 2-3 minutes per side, until grill marks start to form.
  • Remove and serve alone, or with fresh squeezed lime juice and tajin.

Notes

  1. If you’re not sure how to peel and slice a mango, here’s a helpful guide on how to cut a mango.
  2. If your mango is a little soft and juicy, it might be difficult to cut, so just be careful with your knife. 
  3. Make sure you buy fresh and ripe mangoes. If they’re hard, you’ll need to wait for them to ripen. 
  4. Keep your mango slices large enough so they stay on the skewers and don’t fall through the grates on the grill.
  5. Don’t skip the oil. Brushing oil on the mangoes and the grates helps prevent the mangoes from sticking to the grill.
  6. Make sure your grill is set to medium heat. If you grill over high heat, the mango slices may burn. 
  7. You only need to grill for 2-3 minutes per side. If you grill for longer, the mango slices may start to get mushy.
