Chicken Mango Kabobs

Chef #638264's Note:

From the Williams-Sonoma website. Both my DH and I loved these! We ate these kabobs on top of couscous made with chicken broth. Perfect summer meal! Prep time includes marinading the meat.

• Total Time: 4 hrs 10 mins
• Prep Time: 4 hrs
• Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 4

• 6 tablespoons olive oil
• 1/4 cup lime juice
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 4 chicken breast halves, cut into 1-inch cubes
• 3 mangoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch cubes

Directions:

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, cayenne, salt and sugar. Add the chicken and mangoes and stir gently to coat with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours.
2. Prepare a hot fire in a grill.
3. Remove the chicken and mangoes from the marinade and thread onto wood skewers, alternating the pieces and dividing them evenly.
4. Arrange the skewers on the grill and cook, turning once, until the chicken is nicely charred and cooked through, 6 to 10 minutes. Transfer the skewers to a warmed platter and serve immediately.

We really enjoyed this meal. I added the jalepeno's like someone suggested. It really added a zing to the kebobs. I am definitely making these again!

Excellent recipe very flavorful! I always have most of these ingredients in my pantry. One of my favorite Chicken marinades from now on!

So yummy! We ate this outside with freshly picked grilled sweet corn and steamed green beans. I would suggest dipping the skewers in oil before threading them so the chicken comes off without squishing the mangos. We used very ripe mangos and lost some to the fire. My hubby also suggested adding jalapeno peppers to the skewers next time to cut some of the mango's sweetness.
