When I was in Nashville last weekend, we went to a post-race cookout at my sister's boyfriend's house. They made this delicious mango salsa with chicken that I had to recreate once I got home. Thanks for the recipe Brooks/Hannah! The key to this yummy dinner is the salsa, so grill the chicken however you'd like. We marinated it in an Asian teriyaki-based sauce for about an hour before throwing it on the grill. We threw together a salad to go with it out of some lettuce, carrots, tomatoes, mushrooms, cilantro, goat cheese, and walnuts.
Ingredients
- 4 grilled chicken breasts
- 2 tbsp. fresh lime juice
- 1/2 a jalapeno, diced
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro
- 1/4 cup red onion, diced
- 1 ripe mango, cubed
- 1 tbsp. brown sugar
- 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
Directions
- Add lime juice, jalapeno, and cilantro to a food processor/blender and blend just until combined. Put mixture into a medium bowl.
- Add onion, mango, brown sugar, and beans to bowl. Mix well with a fork. Top each chicken breast with salsa and serve.

The salsa sounds like a great combination! That would be good for fish too.
Mango and cilantro...love the combination of flavors...the pictures are very tempting.
mmmm. that mango salsa sounds delicious!
not only is this dish breathtakingly beautiful, but it also appeals to my taste buds very much. i wouldn't mind eating this every day of the week...for awhile, anyway. :)
yum yum YUM!!
That looks great! Love the idea of adding brown sugar.
I actually made mango salsa last night and the mango wasn't ripe enough: could have used the sugar :)
Looks perfect for cinco de mayo!!
I just made black beans today, have not posted them, but your chicken dish, with the mango and cilantro are right up my Texas alley!
This is so fabulous and perfect for Cinco de Mayo.
You can sub the cilantro in the salsa with the same amount of mint for a little twist in flavor... It is wonderful either way! Enjoy!
