Exotic Spice Market Inspired Dish: Savory, Sweet, and Spicy Combination

Exotic Spice Market Inspired Dish: Savory, Sweet, and Spicy Combination

August 6, 2025 Written by Mia

Today, I’m excited to share a unique dish that combines unexpected flavors for a delicious and memorable meal. This recipe was inspired by a recent trip to an exotic spice market, where I discovered a new blend that I couldn’t wait to experiment with in the kitchen.

For this dish, you’ll need the following ingredients:
– 250g boneless chicken breast
– 1 cup quinoa
– 1 can coconut milk
– 1 red bell pepper
– 1 mango
– Fresh cilantro
– Curry powder
– Turmeric

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

  • chef’s knife
  • cutting board
  • saucepan
  • wooden spoon

Start by dicing the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and seasoning with curry powder and turmeric. In a saucepan, cook the chicken until browned and set aside. In the same pan, cook the quinoa in coconut milk until fluffy. Dice the red bell pepper and mango, then add them to the quinoa along with the cooked chicken. Stir in the exotic spice blend and fresh cilantro, then let the flavors meld together over low heat.

Once the dish is heated through and the flavors have combined, serve hot and enjoy the unique blend of savory, sweet, and spicy notes. This dish is perfect for a cozy night in or to impress guests with its unexpected combination of ingredients.

The approximate total weight of the cooked dish is 800g, with four servings at 200g each. Each serving is approximately 350 calories.

One clever tip for this dish is to add a squeeze of fresh lime juice before serving to brighten the flavors and add a burst of citrus.

I highly encourage you to give this unique dish a try and feel free to make it your own by adding your favorite veggies or protein. Enjoy!
