Instructions
Mango Sauce:
Dice one of the mangoes and onion. Peel the other mango and grate the meat on a fine grater.
Preheat a medium sauce pot over medium heat and add some oil. Saute onion until softened and add garlic and diced mango.
Cook for about a minute and add grated mango puree, chicken broth, lime juice, lime zest, ginger, salt, and red pepper flakes.
Cook over for 5-7 minutes over medium heat. Stir in cilantro and take it off the heat.
Chicken:
Break down the whole chicken
into 10 pieces - 4 quarters of breasts, 2 drums, 2 thighs, and 2 wings. Season each piece with salt and pepper.
Preheat the oven to 375°.
Preheat a large skillet or an oven-safe cooking pan over medium-high heat and add some oil.
Sear chicken for a couple of minutes on both sides, until browned.
Spread mango sauce all over the chicken, gently shake the pan to help spread it around, and transfer the pan into the oven.
Bake for 40-45 minutes.
