Very Mango Chutney with Grilled Pork Chops
Source: Chef Allen Susser and National Mango Board
Fruit salsas and chutneys are a tasty accompaniment to pork, poultry, salmon, tuna and other proteins. With some variety of mango available every month of the year, chefs have a ready source for house-made condiments. Here, Chef Allen uses ripe Francis mangos from Haiti as the base for a sweet-spicy contrast to grilled pork chops.
