Surprisingly, grilled mango is superb and easy to fix- plus it's the perfect side dish to any seafood dish in the summer time. Juicy mango with spicy flavors is perfection.
Mango tends to be in season from May to September, so it's perfect during these months. You can find imported mangos sometimes at the store too.

🧊 Storage
Once the mango has cooled store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
I wouldn't heat it again, it can be enjoyed cooled as well.
