1 mango |
1 lime |
1 fresh jalapeno pepper |
2 fresh garlic cloves |
1 tablespoon crystallized ginger |
4 tablespoons fresh cilantro |
2 tablespoons malt vinegar |
1 teaspoon white wine vinegar |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 teaspoon sea salt |
ground black pepper |
Directions:

6. Remove the seeds from the jalapeno, and finally chop 1/2. Add to the mango. You can chop and use the remainder for a spicier dish.
7. In a small skillet, heat a small amount of olive oil over medium heat.
8. While the oil heats, mince garlic and then saute in oil for 1-2 minutes.
9. Add the mango/jalapeno mixture to the garlic/oil and heat for 3 minutes over medium.
10. Add the lime/vinegar/ginger to the skillet. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue to cook for 3 more minutes, stirring constantly. The mixture should thicken from the sugar in the mango. If the chicken is still not ready, keep the mixture warm over low heat.
11. Spoon the mango mixture over the cooked chicken breast and serve.
