Today’s Special: Spicy Mango Chicken Tacos

Hey there, fellow foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a recipe that’s perfect for adding some sizzle to your weeknight dinner routine – Spicy Mango Chicken Tacos. These tacos are a unique fusion of flavors that will surely delight your taste buds and leave you craving for more. So let’s dive into the world of sweet, spicy, and savory goodness!

Ingredients:

  • boneless, skinless chicken breast (250g)
  • mango (1, diced)
  • red bell pepper (1, thinly sliced)
  • red onion (1, thinly sliced)
  • jalapeño pepper (1, minced)
  • lime (1, juiced)
  • garlic (2 cloves, minced)
  • smoked paprika (1 tsp)
  • cumin (1 tsp)
  • cayenne pepper (1/2 tsp)
  • salt (to taste)
  • black pepper (to taste)
  • olive oil
  • tortillas

Kitchen Tools:

  • knife
  • cutting board
  • skillet
  • spatula
  • mixing bowl

I start by marinating the chicken strips in a mixture of minced garlic, smoked paprika, cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. While the chicken is soaking up all those flavorful spices, I heat up a skillet with a bit of olive oil and sauté the red bell pepper, red onion, and jalapeño until they are tender and fragrant.

Next, I add the marinated chicken to the skillet and cook it until it’s fully cooked through. Then, I toss in the diced mango and lime juice, letting everything simmer together for a few minutes until the flavors meld beautifully.

To serve, I warm up the tortillas in a separate pan and spoon the spicy mango chicken mixture onto each one. I like to top off my tacos with some fresh cilantro and a dollop of Greek yogurt for a creamy finish.

This recipe makes approximately 4 servings, with each serving weighing around 300g. One serving of these Spicy Mango Chicken Tacos is roughly 400 calories.

One unique tip for this recipe is to char the tortillas slightly over an open flame before filling them. This adds a delicious smoky flavor that pairs perfectly with the spiciness of the chicken and the sweetness of the mango.

I hope you give these Spicy Mango Chicken Tacos a try and make them your own with different toppings or seasonings. Enjoy!
