Ingredients:

• 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
• 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
• 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 1 onion, thinly sliced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
• 1 large ripe mango, peeled, pitted, and cubed
• 1/4 cup chicken broth or water
• Cooked rice or noodles, for serving
• Fresh cilantro or green onions, chopped (for garnish)

How to Make Mango Chicken Stir Fry:

Prepare the Chicken: In a bowl, season the thinly sliced chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Sprinkle cornstarch over the chicken and toss to coat evenly.

Make the Sauce: In a separate bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, and honey until well combined. Set aside.

Stir Fry the Chicken: Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken slices in a single layer and cook for about 3-4 minutes, until browned and cooked through. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside on a plate.

Cook the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add sliced red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and onion. Stir fry for 3-4 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.

Add Aromatics: Stir in minced garlic and minced ginger, cooking for another 1 minute until fragrant.

Combine with Mango: Add cubed mango to the skillet, stirring gently to combine with the vegetables.

Add Sauce and Chicken: Pour the prepared sauce over the mango and vegetables. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, tossing everything together until evenly coated with the sauce.

Simmer and Thicken: Pour in chicken broth or water to loosen the sauce slightly. Let the mixture simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly.

Serve: Serve Mango Chicken Stir Fry hot over cooked rice or noodles. Garnish with chopped cilantro or green onions for added freshness.

Chef’s Note:

Ripe Mangoes: Use a ripe mango that is slightly firm for easier cutting and handling. Adjust the sweetness of the dish by choosing a mango that is sweeter or less sweet based on your preference.

Customization: Feel free to add other vegetables like snap peas, broccoli florets, or baby corn for added texture and nutrition.

Spice Level: Adjust the heat level by adding chili flakes or a dash of sriracha if you prefer a spicier stir fry.
