Introducing: Spicy Mango Chicken Tacos

Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a new recipe that I whipped up in my kitchen — Spicy Mango Chicken Tacos. This dish is perfect for those warm summer nights when you’re craving something flavorful and satisfying. The combination of spicy chicken, sweet mango, and tangy salsa is sure to tantalize your taste buds. Let’s dive into the recipe!

Ingredients:

  • 2 chicken breasts (400g)
  • 1 ripe mango, diced (200g)
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced (50g)
  • 1 jalapeno, finely chopped (15g)
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 small corn tortillas

Kitchen Tools:

  • skillet
  • knife
  • cutting board
  • mixing bowl

To start, heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken breasts until they are no longer pink in the center, about 6-7 minutes per side. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the skillet and shred it using two forks.

In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, diced mango, sliced red onion, chopped jalapeno, lime juice, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to ensure all the ingredients are evenly distributed.

Warm up the corn tortillas in the skillet until they are soft and pliable. Divide the chicken mixture among the tortillas, spooning it into the center of each one. Fold the tortillas in half to create tacos.

Serve the Spicy Mango Chicken Tacos with additional lime wedges and your favorite salsa on the side. Enjoy the explosion of flavors with each bite!

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 900g, with 8 servings. Each serving weighs around 113g, with an estimated calorie count of 250 per serving.

One clever tip for this recipe is to marinate the chicken in the mango salsa mixture for a few hours before cooking to enhance the flavors even more.

I hope you give these Spicy Mango Chicken Tacos a try and make them your own with any personalized twists. Happy cooking!
