Review / Response
Mango chicken is a fantastic dish that can be bought from almost any Indian resturaunt.
The first time I had this dish was at Curry Twist in Masterton.
I recommend this dish to you even if you aren't a fan of Indian foods for the following reasons:
- This dish isn't like most other Indian dishes
- There is usually a 'no spice' option.
- It tastes really good.
I gave this dish four stars out of five because I havn't had a mango chicken worse than the others but I do believe this dish could have a little more flavour.
The recipe:
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 1 medium sweet red pepper, julienned
- 2 teaspoons canola oil
- 1-1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips
- 1 tablespoon curry powder
- 2 teaspoons minced fresh gingerroot
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 cup chopped peeled mango
- 3/4 cup light coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- Hot cooked rice, optional
Method
- In a large skillet, saute onion and red pepper in oil for 2-4 minutes or until crisp-tender. Add the chicken, curry, ginger, garlic, salt and cayenne. Cook and stir for 5 minutes.
- Stir in the mango, coconut milk and tomato paste; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10 minutes or until chicken juices run clear. Serve with rice if desired. Yield: 4 servings.
This recipe came from Taste of Home and therefore is not my own.
