Today’s Recipe: Spicy Mango Salsa Chicken Tacos

As the weather gets warmer, I find myself craving lighter, fresher meals. Today, I’m excited to share a recipe that combines the sweetness of mango with the heat of spicy salsa in delicious chicken tacos. This dish is perfect for a casual dinner with friends or a family gathering.

Ingredients:

  • boneless, skinless chicken breasts (400g)
  • ripe mango, diced (200g)
  • red bell pepper, diced (100g)
  • red onion, finely chopped (50g)
  • jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced (1)
  • fresh cilantro, chopped (15g)
  • lime, juiced (1)
  • garlic, minced (2 cloves)
  • cumin (5g)
  • chili powder (5g)
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • tortillas

Kitchen Tools:

  • grill pan
  • mixing bowl
  • knife
  • cutting board
  • tongs

Start by preheating your grill pan over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, cumin, and chili powder. Cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.

In a mixing bowl, combine the diced mango, red bell pepper, red onion, jalapeno pepper, cilantro, lime juice, garlic, and a pinch of salt. Mix well to combine all the flavors.

Warm up the tortillas on the grill pan for about 30 seconds on each side. Assemble the tacos by placing the sliced chicken on each tortilla and topping it with the spicy mango salsa.

Serve the tacos immediately and enjoy the perfect balance of sweet, spicy, and savory flavors in every bite.

One clever tip for this recipe is to add a splash of tequila to the mango salsa for an extra kick of flavor. It pairs perfectly with the grilled chicken and adds a unique twist to the dish.

I hope you give these Spicy Mango Salsa Chicken Tacos a try and enjoy them as much as I do. Feel free to customize the recipe with your favorite toppings or protein. Happy cooking!
