Description
Juicy chicken strips coated in a sweet and savory mango glaze, wrapped in tortilla or puff pastry for a delightful twist.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into strips
- 1 cup fresh mango, diced or pureed
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (or any vegetable oil)
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- Black pepper to taste
- Green onions for garnish
- Sesame seeds for garnish
- Tortilla wraps or puff pastry
Instructions
- Begin by marinating the chicken. In a bowl, combine the diced mango, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, olive oil, rice vinegar, and black pepper. Toss in the chicken strips, ensuring they’re well-coated. Let it sit for at least 15 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Transfer the marinated chicken to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for about 20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and slightly golden.
- If you’re using tortilla wraps, warm them in a pan for a few seconds on each side to make them pliable. If using puff pastry, roll it out on a floured surface and cut it into strips.
- Once the chicken is ready, layer slices on your wrap or pastry. Drizzle some extra mango glaze over the chicken for additional flavor.
- Now, twist the wrap or pastry around the chicken strips tightly to avoid any leakage during baking.
- Arrange the twisted delights back on the baking sheet and bake for another 10-12 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
- Let them cool for a minute before serving. Garnish with green onions and sprinkle sesame seeds on top. Enjoy!
Notes
For a vegetarian option, substitute chicken with tofu or chickpeas. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
