Bahamian Entree
CHICKEN MANGO WITH WHITE WINE
3 chicken breasts
4 garlic cloves
2 mangoes
2 1/2 cups white wine
4 tablespoons butter
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ginger
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup orange juice
1 tablespoon lime juice
2 tablespoons soy sauce
PREPARATION
Cut chicken breasts into fourths. Mince garlic cloves. Peel mangoes and cut off the fleshy part into strips. Pour wine into large pot. Put chicken into pot. Cook on high heat for 7 minutes. Pour 1 cup of liquid from the pot into a cup and save. Remove the rest. (This is probably not the best recipe for your Dom Perignon.)
Add butter and garlic to pan with chicken. Fry for about 7 minutes or until chicken starts to turn golden brown. Add saved wine, mango strips, cinnamon, ginger, black pepper, orange juice, and soy sauce. Simmer at low heat with lid on for 10 minutes. Serve to appreciative guests.
TIDBITS
1) Mangos are the most popular fruit in the World
2) Really?
3) The paisley pattern used on ties is based on the mango.
4) Why not ties based on tacos or brownies?
5) Or even tie pattern with a strong marinara theme. That way if you’re having a job interview at a fancy Italian restaurant and you spill marinara sauce on your tie they’ll never notice.
6) Buddha meditated under the cool shade of a mango tree. Sipping a Roy Rogers works for me.
7) I like to think Buddha would have enjoyed a nice, cooling Roy Rogers drink.
