Today’s Special: Mango Coconut Curry Chicken

Greetings, foodies! Today, I am excited to share with you my latest creation: Mango Coconut Curry Chicken. This dish is inspired by the vibrant colors and flavors of summer, combining sweet mango with creamy coconut and a kick of spicy curry. It’s perfect for a cozy night in or a special dinner with loved ones.

Ingredients:

  • 500g chicken breast (diced)
  • 1 large mango (peeled and cubed)
  • 400ml coconut milk
  • 2 tbsp curry powder
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 onion (diced)
  • 1-inch ginger (grated)
  • 1 chili pepper (chopped)
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • to taste
  • for garnish

Kitchen Tools:

  • chef’s knife
  • cutting board
  • large skillet
  • wooden spoon

To start, heat up a large skillet over medium heat and add a splash of oil. Sauté the diced chicken until golden brown, then remove it from the pan and set it aside. In the same skillet, add the diced onion, minced garlic, grated ginger, and chopped chili pepper. Cook until fragrant.

Next, add the curry powder to the skillet and stir to coat the aromatics. Pour in the coconut milk and stir until well combined. Add the diced mango and lime juice, then season with salt and pepper to taste. Let the mixture simmer for about 10 minutes until the mango is soft and the flavors have melded together.

Once the sauce has thickened slightly, return the cooked chicken to the skillet and stir to coat it in the creamy curry sauce. Let it simmer for another 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to come together.

Serve the Mango Coconut Curry Chicken hot, garnished with freshly chopped cilantro. Pair it with steamed rice or naan bread for a complete and satisfying meal.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 1200g, with 4 servings. Each serving weighs around 300g and has an estimated calorie count of 400.

Pro tip: For an extra burst of flavor, try adding a handful of toasted coconut flakes on top of the dish before serving. It adds a delightful crunch and nuttiness to the curry.

I hope you enjoy this unique and flavorful Mango Coconut Curry Chicken recipe. Feel free to experiment with different spices or add your own twist to make it your own. Happy cooking!
