Mango Chicken Marinade - Freezer Recipe
By CarolineNGa
Here is the final version of one of the test recipes that I published on Facebook. I have tested it using fresh pureed mangoes and with mango nectar. Both options taste great!
We use this chicken as a topping for our Berry Chicken Salad. I use a mix of different lettuces (the artisan mix works nice), sliced almonds, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and asiago cheese. I top it with a Pomegranate Vinaigrette.
