Steps
- To begin making the Spicy Grilled Lime & Mango Chicken Recipe we will first make the marinade.
- To make the marinade in a mixer jar combine, the ripe mango with sriracha sauce, fish sauce, lemon juice, olive oil and garlic.
- Grind this into a smooth paste and set aside. You will have approximately 1 cup of the marinade mixture. You can add additional ripe mangoes if you would like more sauce.
- Wash the chicken breasts thoroughly and make diagonal slits on the surface of the breasts.
- In a mixing bowl, place the chicken breasts and pour this marinade over it. Marinade for about an hour. Cover the chicken and keep it aside, while it is marinating.
- Heat a grill pan on medium heat and brush some oil on it. Ensure the pan is well heated.
- Once the chicken has been marinated for an hour, place it on the hot grill pan and cook it for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until well done, ensuring the chicken has cooked through nicely. Ensure not to over cook as the chicken then becomes hard and rubbery.
- Once it is well cooked, remove it from the pan and allow it to rest on a plate.
- Transfer the remaining marinade into a saucepan, add in some more sriracha sauce, some honey and bring it to a single boil.
- Next in a small bowl make a slurry of the corn flour along with the water and add it to the saucepan which has the mango mixture and bring it to a boil and allow the sauce to thicken.
- Turn off the heat. Observe the sauce has thickened and has a nice sheen on it.
- This will be the sauce for our Spicy Grilled Lime & Mango Chicken Recipe.
- Once done, spoon the Mango Sauce on a platter and place a portion of the grilled chicken and serve hot.
- Serve Spicy Grilled Lime & Mango Chicken as an appetizer with some lemon wedges along with the sauce.
- Or you could also serve it as a main along with Buttered Herbed Rice Recipe or Garlic Bread With Herb Butter Recipe and some Roasted Mushroom Recipe for a steak style meal. Finish of with a dessert of Greek Yogurt Chocolate Mousse Recipe.
