Tropical Twist: Mango Coconut Chicken Stir-Fry Recipe

Thai-Inspired Mango Coconut Chicken Stir-Fry

Today, I’m excited to share a unique and flavorful Thai-inspired dish that combines the tropical sweetness of mango with creamy coconut and tender chicken. This stir-fry is perfect for a quick and satisfying dinner on a busy weeknight or a leisurely weekend meal with friends and family.

Ingredients:

• 300g chicken breast, thinly sliced
• 1 ripe mango, peeled and diced
• 200ml coconut milk
• 2 tbsp red curry paste
• 1 tbsp fish sauce
• 1 lime, juiced
• 1 tbsp sugar
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• Handful of fresh basil leaves
• Salt and pepper to taste

Kitchen Tools:

• wok
• wooden spoon
• knife
• cutting board

To start, heat the vegetable oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and red curry paste, and stir-fry for a minute until fragrant. Add the sliced chicken breast and cook until browned on all sides.

Next, pour in the coconut milk, fish sauce, lime juice, and sugar. Stir well to combine and bring to a simmer. Let it cook for about 5 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly.

Once the chicken is cooked, add the diced mango and fresh basil leaves. Stir gently to combine and let it cook for another 2-3 minutes until the mango is heated through.

Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve the mango coconut chicken stir-fry hot over steamed rice or noodles. Enjoy the perfect balance of sweet, savory, and creamy flavors in every bite!

This Thai-inspired mango coconut chicken stir-fry weighs approximately 800g once cooked. It serves 4 people, with each serving weighing around 200g. Each serving is approximately 350 calories.

One unique tip for this dish is to add a handful of toasted coconut flakes on top before serving for an extra crunch and nutty flavor.
