Ingredients

• 4 pieces Chicken breasts
• 2 cups Fresh mangoes, diced
• 1 medium Red bell pepper, sliced
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon Ginger, grated
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (low sodium)
• 2 tablespoons Lime juice
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the chicken breasts. Carefully trim any excess fat and pat them dry with a paper towel.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the diced mangoes, minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, and lime juice. Stir well to blend the flavors.

Step 3

Add the chicken breasts to the bowl, ensuring they are well coated with the mango mixture. Allow them to marinate for at least 15 minutes.

Step 4

While the chicken is marinating, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Add the sliced red bell pepper to the skillet and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften. Remove the peppers from the skillet and set aside.

Step 6

Remove the chicken from the marinade, saving the marinade for later. Place the chicken into the hot skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through.

Step 7

Once the chicken is cooked, pour the reserved marinade into the skillet along with the sautéed red bell peppers, ground cumin, ground coriander, salt, and black pepper.

Step 8

Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5-7 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.

Step 9

Once the sauce has thickened, turn off the heat. Sprinkle the chopped fresh cilantro on top.

Step 10

Serve the Sugar-Free Mango Chicken with a side of your choice, such as steamed rice or a fresh salad. Enjoy!
