Mango Curry Chicken
Report
This mango chicken is marinated in a spiced yogurt sauce and served in a thick, creamy mango curry sauce that’s both sweet and savory.

Ingredients
- 2 lbs chicken breast cut into bite size pieces (See Note 1)
- 2 cups mango chunks thawed if frozen
Marinade
- 1/2 cup plain greek yogurt
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 1 tbsp ginger paste
- 2 tsp garam masala seasoning (See Note 2)
- 1 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper See Note 3
- 1 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
Cooking
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 cup full fat coconut milk or cream
Garnish
- cilantro
- 1/2 cup chopped cashews or almonds optional
Instructions
- Whisk marinade ingredients to combine, then add to a bowl with chicken. Cover and refrigerate for an hour.
- Using an immersion blender or stick blender, puree the mango and set aside.
- Heat vegetable oil over high heat in large fry pan. Add marinated chicken and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the chicken is white all over - it doesn't really brown due to the marinade.
- Add mango puree and coconut milk or cream, stirring to combine. Turn heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes uncovered. Sauce will thicken.
- Season with salt if needed. Remove from heat. Serve over steamed rice of choice. Garnish with cilantro leaves and chopped nuts if desired.
Notes
- Feel free to substitute 2 pounds chicken tenders or boneless, skinless thigh meat.
- Use more or less garam masala seasoning depending on your taste for spicy heat. This is not a very hot dish, the spice blend is more flavorful than spicy. I think sometimes people confuse spices with heat, and there is a difference! 🙂
- Use more or less cayenne, depending on the level of heat you like.
