Today’s Special: Spicy Mango Chicken Tacos

Hey there, foodies! Today, I am excited to share with you a recipe that is perfect for a summer night dinner. These Spicy Mango Chicken Tacos are a delightful blend of sweet and spicy flavors that will leave your taste buds craving for more. Let’s dive into the recipe!

Ingredients:

  • 300g chicken breast
  • 1 ripe mango
  • 1 jalapeno
  • 1 red onion
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 8 small corn tortillas

Kitchen Tools:

  • grill pan
  • mixing bowl
  • tongs
  • chef’s knife

To start, marinate the chicken strips in a bowl with soy sauce, honey, chili powder, cumin, and garlic powder for at least 30 minutes. In the meantime, heat a grill pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken strips and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side until cooked through.

While the chicken is cooking, prepare the mango salsa by combining diced mango, diced jalapeno, sliced red onion, and sliced red bell pepper in a bowl. Toss well to mix all the ingredients together.

Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the grill pan and let it rest for a few minutes. Then, slice the chicken into smaller pieces for the tacos.

Warm the corn tortillas on the grill pan for about 30 seconds on each side. This will give them a nice charred flavor and make them pliable for filling.

To assemble the tacos, place a few pieces of the grilled chicken on a warm tortilla, top it with a generous amount of mango salsa, and enjoy the burst of flavors in every bite!

This recipe serves 4 and each serving weighs approximately 200g. One serving of these Spicy Mango Chicken Tacos is estimated to be around 350 calories.

Clever Tip:

For an extra kick of heat, you can add a drizzle of sriracha sauce on top of the tacos before serving. It will take the spice level up a notch and add a delicious tangy flavor to the dish.

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