Tropical Fruit Salsa Recipes

Steps:

• Stir together all ingredients.

Steps:

• Combine fruits in a large bowl.
• In a small bowl, mix together the orange and lime juices and oil. Drizzle over the fruits and toss gently to mix well.
• Allow to sit for 2 hours. Just before serving, add the pomegranate arils and toss well. Garnish with the cilantro.

Steps:

• If you are using dried chipotle or pasilla de Oaxaca chiles, soak them in warm water for minutes to soften, then drain, seed, and finely chop them. If using canned chipotles, rinse, seed, and finely chop them. If using jalapeño chiles, seed and finely chop them. Ready the poblano chiles. Set all the chiles aside.
• Halve the mango lengthwise, remove the pit, scoop out the flesh from each half with a spoon, and cut into 1/2-inch dice. Twist the stem off the pineapple half and stand the pineapple upright. Cut downward on all sides to remove the peel. Then, with a paring knife, remove the "eyes" by making diagonal cuts across the flesh just deep enough to lift them out. Cut the pineapple lengthwise into quarters, and cut away the strip of core that runs along each wedge. Cut the quarters crosswise into wedges about 1/4 inch wide, and cut the wedges into 1/4-inch dice. Peel the papaya, cut it in half lengthwise, and spoon out the seeds. Cut the halves lengthwise into wedges about 1/2 inch wide, and cut the wedges into 1/2-inch dice.
• In a bowl, combine the chiles, mango, pineapple, papaya, onion, cilantro, and lime juice. Toss together to mix well and then season with salt.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill.
• Place the red snapper fillets in a shallow dish and reserve. In a small bowl, combine lime juice, ginger, pepper, and olive oil. Pour the mixture over the fish and let sit for 15 minutes.
• Grill the fish over medium heat until the flesh is cooked through and opaque, about 4 minutes per side, depending on the size of the fish. Top with tropical fruit salsa and serve.

Steps:

• Add the pineapple, mango, tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, garlic, lime juice, and salt to a bowl. Cover and let chill for at least 1 hour before serving so the flavors can marry together.

Steps:

• Gently toss together all ingredients with salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add 1 1/2 cups red peppers, the green peppers, onion, cumin, and cayenne pepper. Cook until the vegetables are tender, but still firm, about 7 to 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool.
• In a medium bowl, mix the lobster meat, cheese, jalapenos, salt, and cooled pepper mixture. Divide the mixture into 6 portions. Sandwich each portion between 2 tortillas, spreading the lobster mixture evenly.
• Heat a grill or large skillet over medium heat and film the bottom with some of the butter. Place as many quesadillas as will fit without touching, and cook each side until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese has melted, about 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining butter and quesadillas.
• Cut quesadillas into wedges. Place the quesadillas on plates and garnish with remaining red pepper, the green onion, sour cream, and a pineapple top. Serve immediately with Tropical Fruit Salsa.
• In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well. Refrigerate for 45 minutes to 1 hour before serving.

Steps:

• Whisk together lime juice, 3 tablespoons oil, and salt and pepper to taste for dressing.
• Season fish with salt and pepper. Heat remaining 3 tablespoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté scallions, stirring, 1 minute. Add fish and sauté, stirring occasionally, until just cooked through, about 3 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and gently toss fish with chipotles.
• Toss arugula with dressing and salt and pepper to taste.
