Ingredients

  • about 450 g Chicken Breast, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tbsp Blackening Spice Blend
  • 1 tbsp Avocado Oil
  • 1 medium Mango, diced
  • 1/4 cup Red Onion, finely chopped

  • 1/4 tsp Salt

Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.

Instructions

  1. 1In a medium bowl, add the about 450 g of Chicken Breast, cut into 2.54 cm cubes, and sprinkle with the 2 tbsp Blackening Spice Blend. Toss well to ensure each piece of chicken is evenly coated.
  2. 2Place a 30.48 cm skillet over medium-high heat, which is 204.4°C (200°C). Add the 1 tbsp Avocado Oil to the hot skillet.
  3. 3Carefully add the seasoned chicken bites to the hot skillet in a single layer. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through with an internal temperature of 74°C and has a blackened crust on all sides.
  4. 4While the chicken is cooking, prepare the mango salsa. In a separate medium bowl, combine the 1 medium Mango, diced, the 1/4 cup Red Onion, finely chopped, the 1 small Jalapeño, seeded and minced, and the 2 tbsp Cilantro, chopped.
  5. 5Add the 2 tbsp Lime Juice and the 1/4 tsp Salt to the mango mixture. Stir gently to combine all the salsa ingredients.
  6. 6Remove the cooked chicken from the skillet and let it rest for 2 minutes. Serve the blackened chicken bites immediately with the prepared mango salsa on the side.
