Rice and Mango Salad

-->

I love to do this dish because the sweet and acidic flavor of the dish makes it so complex. I would say this is more like a salsa than a salad. Nobody thinks of rice as salad especially where I come from, rice is always something to be as an accompaniment to the main course or a main course itself. Hope you love this recipe as I do.

1 Mango, cubes

1 Avocado

2 Tomatoes

1 Red Onion

2 Cup of cooked rice (preferably long grain)

1 Cooked chicken breast, cut into cubes

1 Tablespoon of lemon juices

1/3  cup of cilantro

 Dressing

1 Teaspoon of mashed garlic

 2 Tablespoon of olive oil

2 Tablespoon of lemon juice

1 Tablespoon of white sugar

Pinch of Salt

2 Teaspoons of black pepper

This is a really easy recipe because the only thing you need to do is to cut everything and mix. One thing, though, I do when doing this salad is I cut the avocado last and mix it with the one tablespoon of lemon juice and then add it with the rest of the ingredients.

For the dressing, I mix all the ingredients and refrigerate for about one hour.  The dressing is always good to do it ahead of time and there you have a fast rice and mango salad. I'll love to hear from you, comments and such.
