Exploring Bold Flavors: Spicy Mango Chicken

Today, I’m excited to share a recipe that combines the sweetness of mango with a kick of spice — my Spicy Mango Chicken. This dish is perfect for those looking to experiment with bold flavors and try something new in their kitchen.

For this recipe, you will need the following ingredients:

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (300g)
  • 1 ripe mango, diced (200g)
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon of fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 tablespoons of soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon of hot sauce
  • 1 tablespoon of honey
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

To prepare this dish, you will need the following kitchen tools:

  • skillet
  • knife
  • cutting board
  • measuring spoons
  • grater
  • tongs

Start by heating olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and sliced jalapeno. Sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet. Cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through.

In a small bowl, mix together the diced mango, soy sauce, hot sauce, and honey. Pour this sauce over the cooked chicken in the skillet. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Once the chicken is fully coated in the mango sauce, remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve the spicy mango chicken with a side of rice or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.

This Spicy Mango Chicken recipe yields approximately 4 servings, with each serving weighing around 175g. Each serving is estimated to be around 250 calories.

A unique tip for this dish is to add a squeeze of lime juice over the chicken right before serving. The acidity of the lime will enhance the flavors of the sweet mango and spicy jalapeno, giving the dish an extra burst of freshness.

I hope you give this Spicy Mango Chicken a try in your kitchen and enjoy the bold flavors it brings to your table. Feel free to adjust the level of spice to suit your taste preferences and make this dish your own. Happy cooking!
