Tropical Mango Chicken Thighs

Chicken thighs are our most favorite part of the chicken because it is packed full of flavor. You can use bone in or bone out, just trim the excess fat off and stick the thighs in a bag and let our marinade its job! You could choose to BBQ, pan fry, or bake these flavorful chicken thighs. Just make extra because left overs make great chicken tacos.

Marinade:

1 tbsp Soy Sauce

1 ½ tsp black pepper

3 tbsp Feta & Herb Dipper

1/2 cup Cilantro EVOO

¼ cup Mango Balsamic Vinegar +1 tbsp

Juice from 1 lime

1 ¾ pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 2­inch chunks

1 tsp Thai Ginger Sea Salt

1/2 cup finely chopped scallions

5 garlic cloves, finely chopped

3 tbsp dark rum

1 large Mango, cut into 1/4­inch cubes

1. Combine ingredients to make the marinade, and marinade for at least 2 hours.

2. Heat 2 TBS of cilantro oil in a pan, Add the scallions, and cook, stirring for 1 minute. Add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes more then add the chicken.
