I’m excited to share this recipe for Mango Coconut Chicken Curry with you today. It’s a perfect dish to celebrate the beginning of the summer season with its vibrant colors and tropical flavors. This unique combination of ingredients creates a dish that is both comforting and exotic, making it a perfect choice for a special dinner at home.

Ingredients:

  • 500g chicken breast
  • 1 large mango
  • 400ml coconut milk
  • 1 onion
  • 3 cloves of garlic
  • 1-inch piece of ginger
  • 2 tbsp curry powder
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • salt and pepper
  • fresh cilantro for garnish

Kitchen Tools:

  • chopping board
  • chef’s knife
  • saucepan
  • wooden spoon

Start by heating some oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the sliced onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger, sautéing until fragrant. Add the cubed chicken breast and cook until browned.

Next, sprinkle the curry powder, turmeric, salt, and pepper over the chicken and stir to combine. Pour in the coconut milk and bring the mixture to a simmer. Let it cook for about 15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Once the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has slightly thickened, add the diced mango to the curry. Stir gently to incorporate the fruit without breaking it apart. Let the curry simmer for an additional 5 minutes until the mango is heated through.

Serve the Mango Coconut Chicken Curry hot over steamed rice, garnished with fresh cilantro. The combination of creamy coconut milk, sweet mango, and aromatic spices creates a dish that is sure to impress your taste buds.

This dish weighs approximately 1400g after cooking and serves 4 people with each serving weighing around 350g. One serving of this Mango Coconut Chicken Curry is estimated to have around 400 calories.

For an extra burst of flavor, try adding a squeeze of fresh lime juice over the curry just before serving. The acidity will help balance the richness of the coconut milk and mango, making each bite even more delicious.

I encourage you to give this recipe a try and make it your own by adjusting the spice level to suit your taste preferences. Enjoy this exotic twist on a classic dish!
