Chicken Mango Chutney Sauce
Ingredients:
– 1 ripe mango, peeled and diced
– 1/2 cup white onion, finely chopped
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
– 1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
– 1/4 cup brown sugar
– 1/4 cup raisins
– 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
– 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
– 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
– Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
1. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the diced mango, chopped white onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Sauté the mixture until the onions are translucent and fragrant, about 5-7 minutes.
2. Add the apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, raisins, mustard seeds, ground cinnamon, and ground cloves to the saucepan. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
3. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer uncovered for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mango is soft and the liquid has slightly thickened.
4. Once the sauce has reached your desired consistency, remove it from the heat. Using an immersion blender or a regular blender, carefully blend the mixture until smooth. If using a regular blender, allow the sauce to cool slightly before blending.
5. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting the seasoning as needed.
6. Serve the Chicken Mango Chutney Sauce warm over grilled chicken, roasted chicken breasts, or even as a dipping sauce for chicken skewers. This versatile sauce also pairs well with pork, fish, or as a topping for vegetarian dishes.
7. Store any leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. You can also freeze the sauce for longer storage; just thaw it in the refrigerator before using it again.
