Introducing: Spicy Mango Chicken Tacos

Today, I am excited to share a unique and flavorful recipe for Spicy Mango Chicken Tacos. This dish is perfect for a summer gathering or a quick weeknight dinner, combining the sweetness of ripe mangoes with the spice of jalapeños for a mouthwatering experience.

Ingredients:

  • 2 chicken breasts (about 400g)
  • 1 ripe mango, diced (about 200g)
  • 1 jalapeño, finely chopped
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 8 small flour tortillas
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Kitchen Tools:

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

To start, preheat your grill pan over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then drizzle with olive oil. Place the chicken on the grill pan and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes before slicing into strips.

In a mixing bowl, combine the diced mango, chopped jalapeño, sliced red onion, lime juice, and cilantro. Mix well to combine and season with a pinch of salt.

Warm the flour tortillas on the grill pan for about 30 seconds on each side until slightly charred and pliable. Assemble the tacos by layering the sliced chicken and mango salsa on top of each tortilla.

Tips for a Unique Twist:

For an extra kick of heat, consider adding a sprinkle of chili powder or a drizzle of sriracha sauce to your tacos. This will elevate the spice level and add another layer of flavor to the dish.
