Fiery Fusion: Spicy Mango Chicken Tacos Just Waiting to Wow Your Taste

Spicy Mango Chicken Tacos

Hey there, foodies! Today I’m excited to share a recipe that I created for a fun and casual dinner with friends. These Spicy Mango Chicken Tacos are a fusion of bold flavors that will surely impress your taste buds. Let’s dive into the delicious details!

Ingredients:

• 2 chicken breasts (400g)
• 1 ripe mango, diced (200g)
• 1 jalapeno, minced
• 1 lime, juiced
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 8 small tortillas
• Fresh cilantro, chopped

Kitchen Tools:

• grill pan
• mixing bowl
• tongs
• chef’s knife
• cutting board

I start by marinating the chicken breasts with lime juice, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. While the chicken absorbs all those flavors, I heat up a grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, I grill the marinated chicken breasts for about 5-6 minutes per side until cooked through. Then, I let them rest for a few minutes before slicing them into strips.

Next, in the same mixing bowl, I combine diced mango, minced jalapeno, and chopped cilantro to create a vibrant salsa. The sweetness of the mango and the heat from the jalapeno create a perfect balance of flavors.

To assemble the tacos, I warm up the tortillas on the grill pan for a few seconds on each side. Then, I load them up with sliced chicken and top them generously with the mango salsa. Feel free to add extra cilantro or a squeeze of lime juice for an added burst of freshness.

Serving:

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 900g, with 8 servings. Each serving weighs around 113g, and you can expect each taco to be around 250 calories.

One clever tip for these Spicy Mango Chicken Tacos is to char the tortillas slightly on the grill before assembling the tacos. This adds a smoky flavor that enhances the overall taste of the dish.

I hope you give these Spicy Mango Chicken Tacos a try and enjoy them as much as I do! Feel free to get creative with the ingredients and make this recipe your own. Happy cooking!
