Flavour chicken breasts with coriander, chilli and lime then serve with Mexican corn chips and a fresh, crunchy salad

Spicy chicken, mango & jalapeño salad

pack cherry tomato, sliced or quartered

tbsp finely chopped jalapeños

coriander,

juice 1 lime, plus halves to serve

red onion, finely chopped

olive oil

chicken breasts, torn into bite-sized shreds

Little Gem lettuces, torn into bite-sized pieces

red pepper, deseeded and sliced

mango, stoned, peeled and diced

tortilla chips, broken up a little

Put the cherry tomatoes, jalapeños, coriander, lime juice, onion and oil in a large bowl with some seasoning.

Pop the remaining ingredients, except the tortilla chips, on top of the dressing. Gently mix the salad together to coat.

Sprinkle the tortilla chips over the top and serve immediately with lime halves.

Tender lettuces get topped with juicy spiced chicken, ripe mangos, soft avocado, and cherry tomatoes. There's so much flavor and texture going on that there's barely a need for a dressing: just a hit of lime juice, salt, and EVOO, and dinner is done.

Mix coriander, cumin, termeric, and red pepper flakes in a small bowl; set aside. Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium. Add garlic and cook, tossing occasionally, until golden brown all over, about 5 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high. Season chicken with kosher salt and add to skillet. Cook, tossing occasionally, until chicken is golden brown and nearly cooked through, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and sprinkle reserved spice mix over. Toss several times to coat and let chicken sit in skillet until cooked through, about 1 minute longer. Transfer to a plate and let cool slightly.

These jammy-yet-crisp cookies, which are akin to rugelach and palmiers, are inspired by the iconic Caribbean and Latin American combination of cream cheese and guava. The cream cheese in the dough makes the cookies simultaneously tender and flaky, while guava jam adds a ribbon of tropical sweetness and welcome acidity. The rolled-up approach gives this guava cookies recipe its namesake pink swirl.

Mangos are delicious, but can be tricky to prepare. Find out how to peel the skin, remove the stone and cut the flesh into bite-sized chunks with our guide.

How to cut a mango

mango

Hold the mango on its side so one of the pointed ends is facing you, with the cheeks at either side.

Slice downwards using a serrated knife to remove one of the cheeks, guiding the knife around the stone in the middle. Turn the mango around and repeat on the other side.

Holding the mango with a thick tea towel, score the flesh in a diagonal pattern along the length of the cheek using the tip of the knife, avoiding cutting through the skin. Turn 90 degrees and score again to make a criss-cross pattern.

Turn the scored mango cheek over and push on the skin with your fingers so the fleshy side pops out, with the scored mango chunks separated and poking out. Cut the cubes of flesh away from the skin with a knife.

Repeat with the other cheek, following the curve of the stone. Score along the pieces with a knife as before, then run the knife along the skin to release the pieces. Add these to the rest of the mango pieces.

A staple at Cuban bakeries, guava pastries (aka pastelitos) are often enjoyed with a sweet cup of café con leche. Inside the buttery, flaky pastry hides guava paste (tangy and tropical) and a luscious cream cheese filling, which beautifully complements the fruit’s sharpness. The pastry dough can be made up to 2 days in advance, which makes for quick assembly when you’re ready to fill and bake.

Serve this simple tropical fruit salad as-is or over yogurt! It's made with equal parts watermelon, cantaloupe (or honeydew), and pineapple, with a splash of lime. The trick is to dice your fruit into very small pieces. Recipe yields about 12 servings (12 cups); it's easily doubled.

Tropical Fruit Salad

cantaloupe

½ mini seedless watermelon, diced into ¼″ cubes (about 4 cups)

pineapple,

lime, juiced (about 2 tablespoons)

Optional,

In a medium serving bowl, combine the diced cantaloupe, watermelon, pineapple and lime juice. Toss to combine. For best flavor, cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes before serving.

This fruit salad is best when freshly prepared but keeps well in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 3 days.

Living in Australia I am no stranger to this lovely tropical fruit salad except never cutting the fruit so small which I will do when I serve it again next summer. It's so great with Greek yoghurt or on a really on a really hot day with vanilla ice cream.  BUT cutting the lime into 1/4" cubes is a mistake surely?

I like the tempting tastes of tropical fruit, it takes just a few easy steps for me to whip up this special recipe for a tasty tropical fruit salad.

I made this today, and it is beyond words! I find cantaloupe to be ok (not great), but I try to eat it because of how good it is for you. When everything is blended like this, it makes for a stunningly delicious taste sensation. It is perfect for a summer day like today. Thank you!

I like this recipe . Thanks for sharing.


Best fruit salad I’ve ever eaten! I’m so glad you posted it even though hesitant to call it a recipe. The method of tiny dicing is a game changer! I make this as many times as I can each summer and we love to pack it up and take to the beach-so refreshing!

I made this for my Grandaughters 2nd birthday party. It was a big hit. So fresh and delicious! We had no worries with the little ones with any chocking hazards. I did add a little honey to mix.

Fill rice paper wrappers with tropical fruit for a dessert that's portable and perfect for a picnic. Serve with our mixed berry coulis for dunking

Fruit rice paper rolls with coulis dip

kiwi fruits

pineapple

blueberries

rice paper wrappers

frozen berries

tbsp honey maple syrup

For the coulis, blitz the berries and honey in a food processor (or in a jug using a hand blender) until very smooth. Add a few tablespoons of water if needed to loosen.

Prepare all the fruit by peeling, pitting or coring, as required. Thinly slice a few pieces of each fruit to decorate. Roughly chop the rest.

Soften the rice paper rolls by dunking into a wide, shallow bowl of water for a few seconds. Transfer to a work surface, then arrange a layer of fruit slices down the middle (this will be the visible decoration when rolled up). Spoon over some of the chopped fruit, then fold the rice paper wrap in at the sides before rolling up. The rice paper will stick to itself to seal. Keep chilled in a cool box or with an ice pack if travelling to a picnic, then serve with the coulis for dunking.
