Description

Fresh, sweet mango makes this salad irresistible!

Ingredients

  • 1 Tablespoon Minced Garlic
  • 1 Tablespoon Minced Jalapeno
  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
  • ½ pounds Chicken Breast
  • Salt And Pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Chili Powder
  • 1 cup Celery, Chopped
  • 1 whole Mango, Peeled And Chopped
  • 3 Tablespoons Light Olive Oil Mayonnaise
  • 2 Tablespoons Plain Yogurt
  • 1 Tablespoon Fresh Lime Juice
  • 1 pinch Lime Zest
  • ½ cups Fresh Chopped Cilantro

Preparation

Saute garlic and jalapeno in oil over medium-high heat until soft, about 1 minute. Sprinkle chicken breasts with salt and pepper and chili powder. Cook chicken in the same skillet until cooked through and brown on the outside, about 4 minutes per side. After chicken has cooled, dice or shred into small pieces.

Toss chopped celery, peeled and chopped mango, and cooled chicken in a large bowl. Stir in mayonnaise and yogurt. Add lime juice and zest. Season with salt and pepper.

Stir in any additional add-ins (see suggestions below—I used all of them!). Store for up to a few days in the refrigerator. Add the fresh cilantro just before serving.

Optional add-ins: 2 tablespoons minced red onion, 1 chopped roasted red pepper, 1 cup black beans, 1 teaspoon sugar

I love the flavor combination in this chicken salad! Its light and was a great way to use up one of the many ripe mangos I have at the moment. I made it with rotisserie chicken for lunch yesterday and we had it on toasted english muffins, and I’m sure it will be great as leftovers again today – thanks for sharing!
