Easy Mango Chicken Curry

 Hello strangers! I have a tasty chicken surprise for you today – Chicken Mango Curry. Never thought of mango + chicken as a pair? No? There is chemistry between them I tell you. Not glaringly obvious that they’re a great match but once you get to know them, you learn they have some kind of symbiosis going on. Add in a little curry powder and vinegar and you start getting serious magic happening, and then coconut milk, well I mean, I say no more.

It’s got all the right ingredients so you can’t really go wrong with it. Even if you don’t blend half the mangoes as I describe in the method, you’ll still end up with a pretty darn tasty curry. And the raisins – add them!! You won’t be sorry unless you’re a find-and-pick-the-raisin-out-of-everything kind of person, then ignore this line 🙂

I really wanted to write more but I’ll save you this time 🙂 I need to dash and pick kids up from school and do all those mommy things! So Enjoy and let me know what you think of the chicken + mango symphony?
