Today’s Culinary Creation: Spicy Mango Coconut Chicken Curry

Greetings, fellow foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a unique and flavorful recipe that I recently whipped up in my kitchen: Spicy Mango Coconut Chicken Curry. This dish is perfect for those looking to add a tropical twist to their weeknight dinner rotation. The combination of sweet mango, creamy coconut, and spicy curry is a match made in culinary heaven.

Ingredients:

  • 400g chicken breast, cubed
  • 1 ripe mango, diced
  • 400ml coconut milk
  • 2 tbsp curry powder
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • 1/2 tsp chili flakes
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1-inch ginger, grated
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • Fresh cilantro, for garnish
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Kitchen Tools:

  • knife
  • cutting board
  • large skillet
  • wooden spoon
  • measuring spoons

To start, heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a splash of oil. Once hot, sauté the minced garlic, grated ginger, and sliced onion until fragrant. Add the cubed chicken breast and cook until browned on all sides.

Next, sprinkle in the curry powder, turmeric, and chili flakes, stirring to coat the chicken evenly. Pour in the coconut milk and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Let the curry simmer for 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Once the curry has thickened slightly, add the diced mango and sliced bell pepper. Stir well and simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes until the mango is tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Before serving, garnish the Spicy Mango Coconut Chicken Curry with fresh cilantro for a pop of color and freshness. This dish pairs perfectly with steamed rice or warm naan bread for a complete meal that will transport your taste buds to a tropical paradise.

The approximate total weight of the cooked dish is 1200g, with 4 servings. Each serving weighs approximately 300g, with an estimated calorie count of 350 per serving.

One unique tip for this dish is to add a squeeze of lime juice right before serving to brighten up the flavors and add a zesty kick to the curry.

I hope you give this Spicy Mango Coconut Chicken Curry a try in your own kitchen and feel free to customize it with your favorite veggies or proteins. Happy cooking!
