**Grilled Chicken with Spicy Mango Glaze and accompaniments**
Grilled chicken is a versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. This recipe for grilled chicken with spicy mango glaze is a flavorful and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout or a weeknight meal. The chicken is marinated in a yogurt-based marinade that infuses it with flavor, then grilled until cooked through. The spicy mango glaze is made with fresh mango, jalapeño, and lime juice, and it adds a delicious sweet and spicy flavor to the chicken. This recipe also includes instructions for making a simple arugula salad and a refreshing cucumber-mint raita, which are both perfect accompaniments to the grilled chicken.
GRILLED CHICKEN WITH MANGO HABANERO GLAZE
This recipe was created for the Ready Set Cook #8 contest. It's best to make this delicious sweet and spicy glaze ahead of time, and keep it refrigerated until needed. It will make about 1/2 cup. Because it's very hot and spicy, it doesn't take much to glaze the chicken breast. If you have some left over, it can be used like pepper jelly for other uses too. (I doubled the glaze recipe to keep on hand in the fridge.) Habaneros are delicious but extremely spicy. If you want to tone down the heat, use less habanero, or use a milder pepper. Also, use extreme care when mincing the habanero. I use a paper towel wrapped around my fingers, to prevent my fingers from coming in contact with it. If you get it on your fingers, and touch your eye - YOWSA!

GRILLED RED CHILE-BUTTERMILK BRINED CHICKEN WITH SPICY MANGO-HONEY GLAZE
Steps:
- Prepare the chicken: Whisk together the buttermilk, chile powders, paprika, coriander, garlic, onion powder and cinnamon in a large baking dish. Add the chicken and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours and up to 24 hours, turning a few more times. Remove the chicken from the brine and pat dry with paper towels. Put the chicken on a baking rack set over a baking sheet. Return to the refrigerator and let sit, uncovered, at least 1 hour and up to 4 hours.
- Meanwhile, make the glaze: Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute. Add the mangoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until broken down and caramelized, about 10 minutes. Add the white wine and cook until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Carefully transfer the glaze mixture to a blender; add the pineapple juice, orange juice and the chile de arbol powder and blend until smooth, about 2 minutes. Strain into a bowl and season with the honey and salt and pepper. The mixture should be a thick puree. If it is too thick, thin it with a touch of water. Let cool to room temperature before serving.
- Grill the chicken: Heat your grill to medium for indirect grilling. Remove the chicken from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking. Brush the chicken on both sides with the oil; season with salt and pepper. Put the chicken, skin-side down, on the hotter side of the grill (direct heat) and grill until browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn the chicken and continue grilling until the bottom is golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Move to the cooler side of the grill (indirect heat), close the cover and continue grilling until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast (not touching the bone) registers 160 degrees F, 15 to 20 more minutes. During the last few minutes, brush with some of the glaze. Remove the chicken to a platter and drizzle with more of the glaze. Tent loosely with foil and let rest 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- For the mango honey glaze: Heat the oil in a large high-sided saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and onions cook until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the mangoes and cook until soft and juicy, stirring occasionally. Add the wine, orange and pineapple juices, 3 tablespoons honey and the chile de arbol and cook, stirring occasionally, about 3 minutes.
- Transfer to a blender and carefully blend until smooth, about 2 minutes. Strain into a bowl, season with salt and pepper and more honey if needed. The mixture should be a thick puree. If too thick, thin with a touch of water. Let cool to room temperature before serving.
- For the chicken: Whisk together the buttermilk, chile powders, coriander, granulated garlic, onion powder, paprika and cinnamon in a large baking dish. Add the chicken and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours and up to 24 hours, turning a few times.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade and pat dry. Place the chicken on a baking rack set over a baking sheet, return to the refrigerator and let sit, uncovered, for at least 1 hour and up to 4 hours.
- Remove the chicken from the refrigerator 30 minutes before grilling. Heat the grill for indirect grilling.
- Brush the chicken on both sides with the oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place on the grill directly over the heat and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Flip the chicken over and continue grilling until the bottom is golden brown. Move to the cooler side of the grill, close the cover and continue grilling until cooked through, about 15 minutes longer. During the last few minutes, brush with some of the mango honey glaze. Remove to a platter and drizzle with more of the glaze.

SWEET AND SPICY GRILLED CHICKEN BREASTS
Brown sugar gives these grilled chicken breasts a glistening glaze and caramel-like sweetness, while mustard powder and cayenne add an earthy kick. If you don't want to bother making a mustard sauce for dipping, just serve these with dollops of good, strong Dijon mustard on the side. A crisp salad and some grilled corn completes the meal. And if you prefer dark meat, this recipe will also work with boneless, skinless thighs, though you might have to add a minute or so to the cooking time. Or use a combination of breasts and thighs for maximum crowd appeal.

Steps:
- Place chicken breasts between two sheets of parchment or plastic wrap. Using a mallet or rolling pin, pound each to an even thickness of 1/2 inch. Do not make them any thinner or they could dry out.

- In a grill pre-heated to medium-high heat or an oven preheated to lo broil (about 400 degrees), cook chicken for 4-5 minutes per side or until chicken is fully cooked.
- In a small bowl, mix together honey and cider vinegar (to help make the honey easier to stir, warm it in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds). Set aside 1/2 of the glaze.
- During the last minute of cooking, brush 1/2 of the glaze on both sides of the chicken. Remove chicken from grill and drizzle the remaining glaze on top, then serve.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken. Bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts or thighs are best for grilling, as they will stay moist and flavorful.
- Make sure your grill is hot. The chicken should sizzle when it hits the grill.
- Don't overcrowd the grill. Leave some space between the chicken pieces so that they can cook evenly.
- Baste the chicken regularly. This will help to keep it moist and prevent it from drying out.
- Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness. The chicken is cooked through when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Conclusion:
Grilled chicken with spicy mango glaze is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the glaze is sweet, spicy, and tangy. Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as rice, grilled vegetables, or a salad. It's a healthy and flavorful meal that the whole family will enjoy.
