Another easy meal that your family will love! Easy to make, yummy to eat and a favourite with the kids and adults.
This recipe is a modification of a recipe that my mom made for years. I hadn’t thought about it in awhile but when I had a few cups of Dole Mango Peach on hand (and my boys decided they prefer mandarin oranges) I changed the recipe to suit our family’s preferences.
Chicken in a Mango Peach Pan Sauce
An easy, delicious family friendly chicken recipe.
Course:
Main
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp coconut oil or olive oil
- 4 Dole Mango Peach Fruit Cup or 12oz canned fruit

- 1 tsp course salt
- 1 tsp garlic pepper or similar savoury spice
- 4 Chicken breasts sliced into cutlets
Instructions
-
Place coconut oil into a pan and heat.

Add chicken cutlets and cook on medium heat.
-
Cook approximately 5 minutes (or until cooked through).
-
Remove from pan and set aside.
-
Add fruit cups to food processor or blender.
-
Pulse a few times to mix but still a chunky consistency.
-
Add mixture to a medium bowl.
-
Mix fruit, brown sugar and cornstarch together.

Add fruit mixture to skillet and cook on medium-high heat until sauce begins to thicken.

Add chicken to skillet, reduce heat to low and cook 5-6 minutes until sauce is thick and chicken is heated through.

Serve chicken with sauce spooned over the top.
Note: We serve our chicken on a bed of spinach to make sure we get some more veggies.
This chicken is great alongside a variety of side dishes. From fresh veggies to your favourite starch you will find this to be not only easy, but versatile too!
