STIR-FRIED MANGO CHICKEN

Stir-Fried Mango Chicken image

I fell in love with the mango chicken dish at a great Chinese restaurant years ago, so I tried to make it at home! Here is my version--easy, fresh, and delicious! The colors are beautiful and there is ample sauce for your rice. Don't forget to put some rice on before you start this, as it goes quick!

Ingredients

1 cup mango nectar
½ cup chicken stock
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into 1/4-inch strips
1 small onion, halved and sliced
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 medium red bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch strips
1 medium green bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch strips
2 medium mangos - peeled, seeded, and cut into thin strips
2 cups hot cooked rice

Steps:

Whisk mango nectar, chicken stock, cornstarch, and soy sauce together in a bowl until well combined; set sauce aside.
Heat oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add chicken, onion, and garlic and fry until onion is soft and chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 3 to 5 minutes.
Add bell peppers to the pan and toss gently. Cover and steam until softened but still firm, about 3 minutes. Add mangos; cook until heated through, about 1 minute.
Give reserved sauce another quick whisk and stir gently into the pan. Cook until sauce is thick, 1 to 2 minutes; peppers and mangos should still be firm, not mushy!
Remove from heat and serve with rice.
