Best Sweet And Sour Mango Chicken With Sesame Rice Recipes

SWEET AND SOUR MANGO CHICKEN S-C-J

Sweet and Sour Mango Chicken S-C-J image

This was originally for shrimp, but I don't like seafood so I changed it. Site quote: "I stopped ordering sweet and sour dishes at my favorite Chinese restaurant when I discovered the calorie count was over the top. So I was delighted when Chef James Brockman helped me whip up this lighter version using mangoes-a delicious, low-cal fruit that is rich in nutrition, packed with beta-carotene and excellent in aiding digestion. Pair it with our Sesame Garlic Broccoli and serve over your favorite rice. Jasmine rice, found in most grocery stores, is very aromatic and goes perfectly with this dish."

SWEET AND SOUR SESAME CHICKEN

Sweet and Sour Sesame Chicken image

Sweet and sour chicken is deep-fried breaded white meat chicken, coated or served with sweet and sour sauce. This recipe isn't exactly a 30-minute meal - it takes a little bit of time and preparation, but if you have a few extra minutes, this sesame chicken is 100% worth it. I love how crunchy the chicken is and that the sauce thickens beautifully to coat the chicken. It's not too thin, but not gloopy either; just right. Toss the chicken on a bed of white rice and top with toasted sesame seeds and chopped scallions, and you'll be in dinner heaven.
