Grilled Mango

Step 1

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (around 400°F).

Step 2

Cut the mangoes in half lengthwise, leaving the skin on. Remove the pit and score the flesh of each mango half in a criss-cross pattern, being careful not to cut through the skin.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together the avocado oil, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper to create a marinade.

Step 4

Brush the marinade generously over the scored flesh of each mango half, making sure it seeps into the cuts.

Step 5

Place the mango halves on the preheated grill, flesh side down. Grill for 3-4 minutes, or until char marks appear.

Step 6

Using tongs, carefully flip the mango halves over so the skin side is down. Grill for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the mangoes are heated through and the flesh is slightly softened.

Step 7

Remove the grilled mangoes from the heat and let them cool for a few minutes.

Step 8

Sprinkle the lime zest over the grilled mangoes and garnish with chopped fresh cilantro.
