Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips. Set aside.
Peel and dice one of the mangoes. Puree it in a blender or food processor until smooth. Set the puree aside.
Peel and slice the second mango into thin strips or cubes for garnish. Set aside.
Mince the garlic and grate the ginger. Prepare the spring onions by slicing them finely if using as garnish.
In a medium bowl, combine the brown sugar, soy sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, and mango puree. Mix well until the sugar dissolves.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and fully cooked. Remove the chicken and set aside on a plate.
In the same skillet, pour in the mango sauce mixture and bring it to a gentle simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Add this to the skillet and stir well to thicken the sauce.
Once the sauce has thickened, return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Toss the chicken in the sauce until fully coated and heated through.
Serve the mango chicken hot, garnished with the reserved mango slices and optional spring onions. Pair with steamed rice or a fresh green salad for a complete meal.
