Today’s Culinary Delight: Tangy Mango Jalapeño Chicken

Greetings, foodies! Today, I am excited to share with you my latest creation: Tangy Mango Jalapeño Chicken. This dish is perfect for those warm summer nights when you want something refreshing and spicy at the same time. The combination of sweet mango, spicy jalapeños, and tender chicken is sure to delight your taste buds.

For this recipe, you will need the following ingredients:

  • 4 chicken breasts (500g)
  • 1 ripe mango, diced (200g)
  • 2 jalapeños, sliced (30g)
  • Juice of 1 lime (30ml)
  • 2 tbsp honey (30g)
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • Handful of fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

To bring this dish to life, you will need the following kitchen tools:

  • skillet
  • cutting board
  • knife
  • citrus juicer
  • tongs
  • measuring spoons

Start by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium heat, sear the chicken until golden brown on both sides, then set aside. In the same skillet, add the diced mango, jalapeños, minced garlic, lime juice, and honey. Cook the mixture until the mango is softened and the sauce is slightly thickened.

Return the chicken to the skillet, coating it in the tangy mango jalapeño sauce. Allow the chicken to simmer in the sauce for a few minutes until it is cooked through. Sprinkle fresh cilantro on top for a burst of freshness.

Once the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened, your Tangy Mango Jalapeño Chicken is ready to serve. The combination of sweet and spicy flavors will surely impress your taste buds!

This dish weighs approximately 800g in total and serves 4 people. Each serving is around 200g. As for the calorie count, each serving is estimated to be around 300 calories.

A clever tip for this recipe is to marinate the chicken in the mango jalapeño sauce for a few hours before cooking. This will allow the flavors to really penetrate the meat, resulting in a more flavorful dish.

I hope you enjoy making this Tangy Mango Jalapeño Chicken as much as I did. Feel free to customize the spice level to suit your preferences and make it your own. Happy cooking!
