Today’s Creation: Spicy Mango Chicken with Coconut Rice

Greetings, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a new recipe inspired by the vibrant colors and flavors of summer. This spicy mango chicken with coconut rice is a delightful fusion of sweet and savory that will transport your taste buds to a tropical paradise.

Ingredients:

  • 2 chicken breasts (400g)
  • 1 ripe mango, diced (200g)
  • 1 can of coconut milk (400ml)
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced (150g)
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1-inch piece of ginger, grated
  • 2 tablespoons of coconut oil
  • 1 cup of jasmine rice (200g)
  • 2 cups of chicken broth (500ml)
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish

Kitchen Tools:

  • knife
  • cutting board
  • skillet
  • wooden spoon
  • pot
  • grater

To start, heat coconut oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic, grated ginger, and chopped jalapeno, sautéing until fragrant. Then, add sliced bell pepper and diced mango, cooking until the peppers are tender.

Next, add diced chicken breasts to the skillet and cook until browned on all sides. Pour in coconut milk and chicken broth, then let the mixture simmer for about 15 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce thickens.

Meanwhile, cook jasmine rice in a pot according to package instructions, substituting water for half of the coconut milk and adding a squeeze of lime juice for extra flavor.

Serve the spicy mango chicken over a bed of coconut rice, garnishing with fresh cilantro and an extra squeeze of lime juice for a refreshing kick.

The total weight of this dish is approximately 1200g, providing 4 servings with an average weight of 300g per serving. Each serving contains around 400 calories.

A unique tip for this recipe is to sprinkle some toasted coconut flakes on top for an added crunchy texture and nutty flavor. Enjoy!

I hope you give this spicy mango chicken with coconut rice a try and enjoy the explosion of flavors in every bite. Feel free to get creative with your own twists and share your experience with me. Happy cooking!
