Mango And Lime Glazed Chicken Food

MANGO-AND-LIME-GLAZED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees. Grate zest and squeeze juice from one lime. Puree in food processor with mango, ginger, honey, oil, and salt to taste; mango should not be completely smooth. Reserve 3 tablespoons for Buckwheat-Noodle Salad; set aside remaining glaze.
• Sprinkle chicken, inside and out, with salt and pepper. Puncture two limes; place in chicken cavity, and tie legs together with kitchen twine. Divide butter in half; slip pats under skin on each side of breast.
• Halve remaining two limes, and strew roasting pan with limes, ginger pieces, and lemongrass. Place chicken in pan. Roast in bottom third of oven until chicken begins to brown, about 20 minutes. Baste with pan juices, and generously brush glaze over chicken. Continue to roast, basting and glazing every 10 minutes; cover with foil if chicken starts to burn. After 30 minutes, reduce oven to 350 degrees, and cook about 10 minutes, or until chicken has internal temperature of 185 degrees.

MANGO-LIME CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, and chili powder; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 8 minutes. Stir in mango puree, lime juice, sugar, lime zest, salt, and pepper; bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat and add chicken pieces. Simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 10 minutes. Serve.

MANGO CHILE CHICKEN

Steps:

• Put the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag and add the chile powder, lime zest, 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and some salt and pepper. Seal the bag and shake to coat. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.
• Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the bag and let any excess marinade drip off. Grill the chicken breasts until cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Keep warm.
• Put the mango, kale, scallions, jalapeno and bell pepper in a large bowl. Whisk together the lime juice, chopped cilantro, 2 tablespoons of the reserved mango liquid, the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil and salt and pepper to taste in a small bowl. Pour half of it over the salad and toss to coat. Add more if you like.
• Cut the chicken breasts into slices and fan them out. Pile the salad on a plate and arrange the chicken on top. (Or you can leave the breast whole and pile the salad on top of the chicken.)

MANGO GLAZE FOR FISH, CHICKEN, OR PORK

Steps:

• Heat the vinegar in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the sugar and cook until thickened slightly. Add jalapeno, ginger, and mango and continue cooking until softened. Add the lime juice. Transfer to a food processor and puree until smooth. Strain, if necessary. Consistency will be thick and jam-like, but can be thinned to more of a glaze consistency with honey or water.

MANGO & LIME CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Toss the chicken wings in a drizzle of oil and some seasoning in a baking tray. Cook for 30 mins. Mix the chutney with the lime zest. Brush all over the chicken, then return to the oven for 20 mins, turning and painting halfway through cooking. To serve, scatter with the chilli and coriander.
