Ingredients
Instructions
- Cook the jasmine rice according to package directions; fluff with a fork and set aside.
- While the rice cooks, dice the onion and bell pepper. Peel and dice the mango. Zest and juice the lime.
- In a small bowl, combine the diced mango, half the diced onion, half the lime juice and 1 teaspoon olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set the relish aside.
- Heat the cooking oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining onion and bell pepper; cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Sprinkle with sugar and cook, stirring, until the peppers are tender and slightly jammy, about 2 minutes more. Transfer to a bowl.
- In the same skillet, add the ground pork and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes. Stir in the Mexican spice blend and cook for 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper.
- To serve, divide the rice among bowls. Top with the spiced pork, the mango-bell pepper relish and a dollop of guacamole. Garnish with remaining lime zest if desired.
Recipe Tips
For extra heat, add a pinch of cayenne or chili flakes to the pork while cooking.
If you prefer a milder relish, remove the seeds and membranes from the bell pepper.
The relish can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to a day.
