Ingredients :

breast of one chicken
1 tbsp. of finely minced garlic
1 thumb-sized piece of ginger
2 white onions
2 small carrots
1 red bell pepper
12 baby corn
100 g. of chicharo (snow peas)
250 g. of fresh button mushrooms
1 ripe mango
1/4 c. of light soy sauce
2 tbsps. of cooking oil

Cooking procedure :

Debone the chicken breast (or use breast fillets). Cut into strips about 1/2 inch wide and 2 inches long. Place in a bowl. Pour in the soy sauce and mix well. Set aside.

Peel the ginger and slice thinly.

Peel and chop the onions coarsely.

Peel the carrots, cut in half vertically then slice thinly.

Trim the ends and sides of the chicharo.

Core, seed and cut the bell pepper into 1/4-inch wide strips.

Cut the mushrooms in half, if small; slice if they are big.

If they are big, cut the baby corn in halves.

Cut the mangoes down the middle, avoiding the seed. Do the same with the other side. With a spoon, scoop out the meat of the mango in one piece. Do the same with the other half. Cut the meat into strips.

Heat a wok or skillet. When hot, pour in the cooking oil. Heat to smoking point. Drain the chicken and add to the hot oil. Stir-fry over high heat for about 30 seconds. Pour in the marinade. Add the garlic, ginger and onions. Cook, stirring for about two minutes. Add the carrots, bell pepper, chicharo and mushrooms. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes. Add the mango strips and toss a few times. Cook just until the mango strips are heated through.

Serve at once.

    This sounds yummy! I’m a huge mango fan and have tried pairing mangoes with savoury dishes before. I made a version of this with shrimps. I’ll probably try making this for Noche Buena this year. :)

    Shrimps sound good, Marie. Fish fillets will probably work as well. :)

    Your friend is right – there is nothing like Philippine mangoes! Miss ko na yan… dito sa States, hindi matatamis ang mga mangga. Malalaki sila at pula, not like our golden mangoes – so sweet!
