2 1/3Tbsp.honey
1clovegarlicminced, about 1/2 tsp.
1Tbsp. fresh gingerpeeled and minced
1 1/2lbs.boneless, skinless chicken breastscut in half crosswise (the short way)
1cupslarge mangoor use 2 peaches, cubed, or use 1 1/2 cup frozen mango
1/4cupfresh cilantrochopped
1/2limejuice only, about 1 Tbsp.
1/4tsp. crushed red pepper flakesoptional
Instructions
Preheat the broiler and position the oven rack 3 – 4 inches from the heating source. Spray a broiler pan with nonstick cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, combine the soy sauce, 2 Tbsp. honey, the garlic, and ginger. Remove 2 Tbsp. of the mixture and set it aside.
Add the chicken to the bowl with the sauce and turn it until it is coated.
Place the chicken on the broiler pan and cook it for 5 minutes until it turns golden. Flip the chicken and spoon the reserved sauce evenly over the top. Broil it for about 5 more minutes until it is cooked through (the chicken should no longer be pink in the middle and its internal temperature should be 165 degrees). Remove it from the oven.
Meanwhile, in a medium serving bowl, toss together the mango, cilantro, lime juice, 1 tsp. honey, and crushed red pepper flakes (optional).
Serve the chicken topped with the mango salsa.
Notes
Do Ahead or Delegate: Cut the chicken and refrigerate, peel the garlic, peel and mince the ginger, make the marinade and marinate the chicken in the refrigerator, cube the mango, chop the cilantro, juice the lime, prepare and refrigerate the salsa.Scramble Flavor Booster: Double the garlic and use the optional red pepper flakes.Tip: To dice a mango, hold the unpeeled mango upright on the counter, with the stem on top. Slice the mango in half from top to bottom, staying as close along the long, flat side of the pit as possible. Place the unpeeled mango halves skin side down on a cutting board and score them all the way through the fruit to the skin to make squares. Turn the skin inside out and slice the fruit from the skin.Nutritional Information Per Serving (% based upon daily values): Calories 270, Total Fat: 3g, 4%; Saturated Fat: 1g, 3%; Cholesterol: 100mg, 33%; Sodium: 560mg, 23%; Total Carbohydrate: 21g, 7%; Dietary Fiber: 1g, 4%; Sugar: 18g; Protein: 40gLike this recipe?
