Mango Curry Sauce over Chicken and Rice

Submitted by SpicySweetDelicious

"This isn't my own recipe exactly...it's what I adapted from several recipes to suit our budget and taste. The whole family loved it! This was my first time making a sauce and it turned out great. This was very easy and affordable if you find the ingredients on sale. You can add broccoli, mini corn, or whatever veg you like when you boil the rice. You can also use any type of rice, and either bone-in or boneless chicken. This makes enough for a family of five so you may want to change amounts. The sauce is sweet and spicy and friggin delicious!"
