Instructions

Prepare the Ingredients

Slice the red and yellow bell peppers. Peel, pit, and dice the mango. Mince the garlic clove.

Pro tip: Using a sharp knife will make slicing easier and safer.

Heat the Oil

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Pro tip: Ensure the oil is hot before adding the chicken to prevent sticking.

Cook the Chicken

Add the chicken pieces to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Pro tip: Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.

Add Peppers and Garlic

Add the sliced bell peppers and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the peppers are tender-crisp.

Pro tip: Avoid overcooking the peppers to maintain their crunch.

Incorporate Mango and Seasonings

Stir in the diced mango, soy sauce, ground ginger, and chili flakes. Cook for another 3 minutes until everything is well combined and heated through.

Pro tip: Adjust the amount of chili flakes to control the spice level.

Serve

Remove from heat and serve immediately over rice or quinoa.

Pro tip: Garnish with fresh cilantro for added flavour and colour.
