Introducing: Spicy Mango Chicken Tacos

Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share my latest creation with you all: Spicy Mango Chicken Tacos. With summer just around the corner, I wanted to create a dish that embodies the vibrant flavors of the season while still packing a punch. These tacos are a delightful balance of sweet, spicy, and savory, making them perfect for any occasion, from a casual weeknight dinner to a weekend barbecue with friends.

Ingredients:

  • 200g chicken breast, diced
  • 1 ripe mango, diced
  • 1 jalapeño, diced
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 4 tortillas, for serving
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped

Kitchen Tools:

  • skillet
  • chopping board
  • knife
  • mixing bowl
  • citrus juicer
  • spatula

To start, heat a skillet over medium heat and add the diced chicken breast. Season with cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, and garlic powder. Cook until the chicken is browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

In a mixing bowl, combine the diced mango, jalapeño, red onion, and chopped cilantro. Squeeze the lime juice over the mixture and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Warm the tortillas in the skillet for about 30 seconds on each side. Fill each tortilla with the spicy mango salsa and top with the cooked chicken. Serve hot and enjoy the explosion of flavors in every bite!

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 750g, with 4 servings. Each serving weighs around 187g, with an estimated calorie count of 300 per serving.

One tip to make these Spicy Mango Chicken Tacos extra special is to char the tortillas slightly before filling them. This adds a smoky flavor that pairs beautifully with the sweet mango salsa and spicy chicken.

I hope you give these Spicy Mango Chicken Tacos a try and make them your own by adding your favorite toppings or switching up the spices. Happy cooking!
