Mango Chicken Curry

Healthy Fact of the Day

Mango Chicken Curry is packed with immune-boosting ingredients like mangoes, which are rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, and turmeric, known for its anti-inflammatory properties. Using coconut milk instead of heavy cream keeps it dairy-free while adding healthy fats. For a lighter version, opt for lean chicken breast and serve with brown rice or cauliflower rice for added fiber and nutrients. The fresh cilantro and lime juice not only enhance flavor but also provide essential vitamins for overall wellness.

    Ingredients

    • 1 kg chicken, cut into pieces

    • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

    • 1 large onion, chopped

    • 2 cloves garlic, minced

    • 1 tablespoon ginger, minced

    • 2 ripe mangoes, pureed

    • 1 cup coconut milk

    • 1 teaspoon turmeric powder

    • 1 teaspoon chili powder

    • 1 teaspoon salt

    • 1 lime, juiced

    • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped

    Directions

    • Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat, then add the chopped onion. Cook until the onion becomes translucent, stirring frequently.
    • Add the minced garlic and ginger to the pan, stirring well, and cook for about 2 minutes until aromatic.

    • Add the coconut milk to the pan, ensuring the chicken is submerged in the liquid. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
    • Cover the pan and let the curry cook for approximately 25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked.
    • Season the curry with salt and lime juice, stirring to distribute the flavors evenly throughout the dish.

    Tip of the Day

    “Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

    Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
