Turn up your flavor game with this steak with rice and mango salsa recipe!
It’s that time of the year when I start to get those winter blues, and just want the nice warm weather! If you live in a cold/snowy climate, I’m sure you can relate to how I’m feeling!
But, just because the outdoors aren’t so warm or colorful doesn’t mean you can’t bring the color and warmth through a recipe! Which is exactly what this recipe does.
It tasted JUST like the summertime. Because what else says summertime better than grilling, and fresh flavors?!
Steak is delicious all in itself. But what makes this recipe so inviting is the mango salsa. I mean, look at those colors! Talk about freshness, and flavor!
It’s a very simple salsa recipe also! Mango, red pepper, red onion, avocado, salt and pepper. Simple!
Oh yes, and I cant forget the lime juice! That gives the salsa some awesome flavor! As well as prevents the avocado from turning brown. Fun fact!
You can cook your steak however you want. In the oven, on the stove or grill! I prefer to grill mine. Especially when I’m craving those summertime flavors!
If you make this recipe, I hope you enjoy!

Steak With Rice And Mango Salsa
Ingredients
- 1-1½ lbs. sirloin strip steak I highly recommend marinating your steak in marinade of choice for a few hours!
- 1 cup rice
For Mango Salsa
- 1 ripe mango, diced
- 1 ripe avocado, diced
- 1/4 cup red onion, diced finely
- 1/4 cup red pepper, diced finely

- 1 tbsp lime juice
- shredded red cabbage – for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare your mango salsa by mixing all ingredients for salsa together in bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside.
- Cook your rice according to package directions. When done, take off heat and keep covered to stay warm.
- If you are grilling your steak, preheat your grill to medium high heat.
- Depending on how you like your steaks cooked, timing will vary. I cooked my steaks to be medium well done with some pink inside. This took about 4-5 minutes each side.
- To plate, place some rice on plate, with cut up steak on top and mango salsa on side.
- If you mix the salsa in with the rice, its delicious!
- Enjoy!
