🍗 Mango Chili Glazed Chicken

(Sticky. Sweet. Spicy. A bold glaze that clings to imperfect golden chicken.)

This is the kind of dish that’s messy in all the right ways. Juicy chunks of chicken breast, pan-seared until golden, then tossed in a sticky mango chili glaze that’s sweet, tangy, and spicy — all at once. No garnish, no filter, just pure flavor.

📝 Ingredients (serves 2–3):

For the chicken:
• 2 boneless chicken breasts, cut into chunks
• Salt & pepper
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp butter

For the glaze:
• ½ cup mango purée (fresh or frozen mango, blended)
• 1–2 tsp chili paste or sriracha
• 1 tbsp honey
• 1 tsp rice vinegar or lime juice
• 1 garlic clove, grated
• Salt to taste

🔥 Instructions:
1. Sear the chicken:
Season chicken with salt and pepper. Sear in olive oil and butter over medium-high heat until golden brown and just cooked through. Set aside.
2. Make the glaze:
In a pan, combine mango purée, chili paste, honey, vinegar/lime juice, garlic, and salt. Simmer for 3–4 minutes until thick and glossy.
3. Glaze it rustic:
Add the chicken back to the pan. Toss to coat. Let the sauce stick unevenly and caramelize in spots. Scrape the good bits off the bottom — that’s where the flavor lives.
4. Serve naturally:
Spoon onto a plate. Let the glaze pool and drip. Let it look (and taste) homemade.
