These Pineapple Mango Salsa Chicken Lettuce Wraps are without a doubt my new fav meal for Spring/Summer (and let’s be real, probably every season moving forward!) because they’re just so simple.
These lettuce wraps are totally not blah and flavorless like some other lettuce wraps might be.
They’re seriously BURSTING with flavor thanks to the Pineapple Mango Salsa that I loaded them up with and the perfect amount of spices/ lime juice.
The salsa is outrageously delicious (and a total copycat of Whole Foods, just way cheaper!), the meal is ridiculously simple
(Especially if you have an instant pot to cook the chicken!)+ is straight up delicious. I think you’re going to love them!
Tips for making this Pineapple Mango Salsa
- Make sure to cut in small pieces – You need small pieces to be able to scoop this up with chips! Try to dice your fruits/veggies in small tiny squares.
- Allow the salsa to sit before serving – This salsa is fine to eat as soon as you make it, but it’s even better if you let it sit for about an hour in the fridge + allow the flavors to meld together!
- Wash your hands thoroughly after making it – Especially after cutting the jalapeño! It seems like a silly thing to note, but you have to be careful when cooking with them!
