Today’s Special: Spicy Mango Coconut Chicken

Hey there, foodies! Today, I am thrilled to share with you my latest creation: Spicy Mango Coconut Chicken. This dish is a perfect blend of sweet and savory flavors with a kick of spice that will surely tantalize your taste buds. I was inspired to make this dish on a hot summer day when I was craving something exotic and refreshing. Let’s dive into the recipe!

Ingredients:

  • 2 chicken breasts (400g)
  • 1 ripe mango, diced (200g)
  • 1 cup coconut milk (240ml)
  • 1 jalapeno, thinly sliced
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1-inch piece of ginger, grated
  • Handful of fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Kitchen Tools:

  • knife
  • cutting board
  • skillet
  • spatula

To start, season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium heat, sear the chicken until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and grated ginger. Sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in the coconut milk and diced mango. Stir to combine, then add the sliced jalapeno for a spicy kick.

Return the chicken to the skillet, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened. Squeeze in the lime juice and sprinkle with fresh cilantro before serving.

This Spicy Mango Coconut Chicken dish weighs approximately 900 grams once cooked. It serves 4 people, with each serving weighing around 225 grams. An estimated calorie count for one serving is 350 calories.

One unique tip for this recipe is to marinate the chicken in a mixture of mango puree, coconut milk, and lime juice for a few hours before cooking. This will infuse the chicken with even more flavor and make it extra tender.

I highly recommend giving this Spicy Mango Coconut Chicken recipe a try. It’s a delightful mix of flavors that will transport your taste buds to a tropical paradise. Feel free to get creative and add your own twist to this dish. Enjoy!
