Today’s Unique Dish: Mango Basil Chicken Stir-Fry

Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a brand new recipe that combines the sweetness of mango with the savory goodness of basil in a delicious stir-fry dish. This unique flavor combination is perfect for a light and refreshing meal that’s sure to impress your taste buds.

Ingredients:

  • 350g chicken breast
  • 1 large mango
  • 50g fresh basil
  • 1 bell pepper
  • 1 red onion
  • 50ml soy sauce
  • 3 cloves of garlic
  • 1-inch piece of ginger
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • Salt and pepper

Kitchen Tools:

  • wok
  • chef’s knife
  • cutting board
  • wooden spoon
  • measuring cups

To start, heat vegetable oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and ginger, then stir-fry for about a minute until fragrant. Next, add the sliced chicken breast and cook until no longer pink.

Once the chicken is cooked through, add the sliced bell pepper and red onion to the wok. Stir-fry for a few minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender. In a small bowl, mix soy sauce with cornstarch until smooth, then pour over the chicken and vegetables. Stir well to combine and coat everything with the sauce.

Gently fold in the diced mango and fresh basil leaves, allowing them to heat through for a minute or two. Season with salt and pepper to taste. The fragrance of the basil paired with the sweetness of mango creates a tantalizing aroma that will make your mouth water.

Serving:

This Mango Basil Chicken Stir-Fry weighs approximately 850g after cooking. It serves 4 people, with each serving weighing around 212g. Each serving of this dish is approximately 300 calories.

One unique tip for this recipe is to sprinkle some toasted sesame seeds on top before serving. The nutty flavor of the sesame seeds adds a delightful crunch that complements the dish perfectly.

I hope you give this Mango Basil Chicken Stir-Fry a try and enjoy the burst of flavors in every bite! Feel free to customize it with your favorite vegetables or protein to make it your own. Happy cooking!
