Indulge in a culinary escapade with our tantalizing Chicken and Mango Salad, a vibrant blend of flavors and textures that will tantalize your taste buds. This refreshing salad showcases succulent grilled chicken, perfectly complemented by ripe and juicy mangoes. The crisp crunch of red bell peppers and the zesty kick of red onions add depth and dimension to each bite. Drizzled with a tangy and aromatic dressing made from lime juice, fish sauce, and honey, this salad strikes a harmonious balance between sweet, sour, and savory.
In addition to the main recipe, we present a delightful array of variations to cater to diverse preferences and dietary needs. For a vegetarian twist, substitute tofu or tempeh for the chicken, creating a protein-packed and flavorful alternative. Those seeking a gluten-free option can swap out the soy sauce in the dressing for tamari or coconut aminos. For a touch of heat, add a pinch of chili flakes or chopped chili peppers to the dressing. For those who prefer a milder flavor profile, reduce the amount of lime juice and fish sauce in the dressing.
With its vibrant colors, enticing aromas, and explosion of flavors, our Chicken and Mango Salad is a culinary masterpiece that will leave you craving more. Whether you're hosting a summer barbecue, packing a healthy lunch, or seeking a light and refreshing meal, this salad is sure to impress.

MANGO, CHICKEN AND SPINACH SALAD
A light and refreshing entree salad inspired by a Weight Watchers recipe. But don't let this meal's origin stop you from trying this. If mango is not available, then peaches and peach nectar should also work well. I have presented two ways to prepare the dressing, a simple vinagrette and a warmer version thickened with cornstarch. For those following the Flex Program, the salad is 4 points per serving. For Core folks, the salad is Core plus 1 point for the non-Core dressing.

CHICKEN AND MANGO SOBA SALAD WITH PEANUT DRESSING
Japanese buckwheat noodles are usually served cold or in a hot soup, but here, they're given a bright jolt of color and texture. Delightfully chewy soba noodles are combined with chicken, mango, snap peas, cucumber and a spicy peanut dressing for a great warm-weather lunch that's also picnic-friendly. Serve it alongside any grilled meat or fish, or leave the chicken out to make it vegetarian.

GRILLED CHICKEN HOAGIES WITH MANGO CHUTNEY AND MELTED BRIE SERVED WITH TOMATO CUCUMBER SALAD
Steps:
- Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill to high heat.
- In a shallow dish, mix together 2 tablespoons of the EVOO, the thyme, garlic, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken cutlets and coat thoroughly. Let the chicken marinate while you get the salad together and grill up the bread.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the mustard, white wine vinegar, shallots, and a little salt and pepper. In a slow, steady stream, whisk in the remaining 3 tablespoons of EVOO. Add the grape tomatoes; with a fork smash some of the tomatoes against the side of the bowl so that their juices become part of the dressing. Add the sliced cucumbers and toss them to combine.
- Cut the hoagie rolls in half lengthwise like a book, without separating the two halves all the way. Drizzle the inside of the rolls with some EVOO, hinge the rolls open, and lay them down on the grill with the inside flat against the grill. Once they are well marked, 1 to 2 minutes, flip them over and grill the outside a little bit. Remove the rolls from the grill and reserve.
- Grill the cutlets for 3 to 4 minutes on one side. Flip the cutlets and top each with some of the mango chutney, spreading it out a bit, and 2 slices of Brie. Tent the chicken with a piece of foil and continue to grill it for 3 to 4 minutes to melt the cheese. Remove the cutlets from the grill, cut each in half, and distribute the chicken among the grilled rolls, wedging it into the bread. Top the chicken with some of the chopped watercress and squeeze the hoagies shut. Serve the sandwiches alongside the tomato cucumber salad.
