Categories     Main Course

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 medium ripe mango (peeled and diced (yield should be 1+ cups))
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons soy sauce (regular or gluten-free)
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
2 garlic cloves (minced)
1 teaspoon fresh minced ginger
½ teaspoon crushed red chili flakes
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1.5-2 Pounds chicken thighs (bone-in and with the skin on)

Steps:

  • Combine the marinade ingredients in a blender: mango, lime juice, oil, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, crushed red pepper flakes, and cilantro. Blend until smooth. Should yield about 1 ¼ cups.
  • Reserve ¼ cup of the marinade for later.
  • Place the chicken thighs in a gallon plastic bag or container. Pour in the remaining marinade (1 cup) and coat the chicken. Seal and marinate in the refrigerator for 4 hours minimum and up to 12 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Heat grill pan or cast iron skillet on medium high heat on the stove top. Spray the grill pan lightly with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Remove the chicken from the marinade (and discard the mariade from the container). Place chicken skin side down. Sear for 5 minutes.
  • Flip over with tongs and sear for 5 more minutes.
  • Brush the remaining 1/4 cup of marinade onto the top to the chicken.
  • Place the pan in the oven and cook for 10-15 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.
  • Allow to rest 5 minutes before serving.
  • Preheat gas grill to high. When the grill is hot brush it well and run a paper towel quartered with some vegetable oil on it over the grates to oil them. NOTE: I use the grill brush to push the paper towel over the grates.
  • Place chicken thighs, skin side down on heated grill for two minutes to sear them. Turn off half of the grill and move thighs to this side, skin side up, for indirect cooking.
  • Close the grill and cook until the internal temperature of the chicken thighs reaches 165 degrees. Baste with the 1/4 cup marinade (top of the thighs only) during grilling. The thighs do not need to be flipped during cooking. Estimated grilling times: For smaller chicken thighs approximately 25-30 minutes, larger thighs can take 45-50 minutes. Juices should run clear and there should be no pink but the flesh will be moist and juicy.
  • Remove the chicken thighs and allow them to rest 10 minutes before serving.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place a cooking rack in a baking sheet and spray with non-stick spray. Quick clean up tip: Line the baking sheet with foil and discard when done cooking.
  • Place on the prepared rack skin side down. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes.Turn the chicken thighs over, baste with the remaining 1/4 cup of marinade and bake another 30 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F on an instant read thermometer.Allow to rest 5 minutes before serving.

1/4 cup green pepper, chopped
2 tablespoons shallots, chopped
2 tablespoons butter
1 chicken bouillon cube, crumbled
1 cup mango chutney
1/2 cup orange juice
1 cup water
1 tablespoon ginger, chopped
1 1/2 cups mangoes, cubed
4 boneless chicken breasts

Steps:

Tips:

  • Use ripe mangoes: Ripe mangoes are sweeter and have a more intense flavor than unripe mangoes. They are also softer, which makes them easier to cook with.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken breasts can easily become dry and tough if they are overcooked. Cook them until they are just cooked through, which will take about 10-12 minutes.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. You can add any vegetables that you like, such as broccoli, carrots, bell peppers, or snap peas.
