Summer Sensation: Exotic Mango Salsa Chicken

Today’s Special: Exotic Mango Salsa Chicken

As the warm summer breeze carries the scent of ripe mangoes through my kitchen, I am inspired to share my latest exotic creation — Mango Salsa Chicken. This dish combines the tangy sweetness of fresh mango salsa with juicy grilled chicken, creating a mouthwatering explosion of flavors that is perfect for a sunny day barbecue or a cozy family dinner.

Ingredients:

• 4 chicken breasts (600g)
• 2 ripe mangoes (400g)
• 1 red bell pepper (150g)
• 1 small red onion (100g)
• 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
• 1 lime, juiced
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper

Kitchen Tools:

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

To start, preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and nicely charred.

While the chicken is cooking, prepare the mango salsa. Dice the mangoes, red bell pepper, and red onion into small, uniform pieces. In a mixing bowl, combine the diced mango, bell pepper, onion, chopped cilantro, lime juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine all the flavors.

Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Slice the chicken into strips and arrange it on a serving platter. Spoon the mango salsa generously over the grilled chicken, allowing the vibrant colors and fresh aroma to tantalize your senses.

This Mango Salsa Chicken dish weighs approximately 1200g once fully cooked. It serves 4 people, with each serving weighing around 300g. This delightful dish is a feast for the taste buds, with an estimated calorie count of 350 per serving.

Clever Tip:

For an extra kick of flavor, try grilling the mango slices for a few minutes before dicing them for the salsa. This will caramelize the sugars in the mango and add a unique smoky sweetness to the dish.
