Mango, Papaya, and Poblano Chile SalsaThis tropical salsa comes from Chef Manuel Arjona, a native of Yucatán, and currently Executive Chef of Maya, in Sonoma, California. Yucatán's hot climate and mix of Mayan, Caribbean, and Spanish influences make cold, juicy tropical fruits popular and welcome in any form. The sauce is good with Fish Fillets Baked in Banana Leaves, or other grilled fish or chicken.

Notes / Tips / Wine Advice:
Mexican papayas are much larger and shaped differently than Hawaiian papayas, so 1 cup of diced papaya is about the right amount for the salsa, or use 1 whole Hawaiian papaya.
