High-Protein Sweet Mango Chicken
I had never tried a sweet&sour recipe before and if they all taste as good as this one I’m completely sold on the idea.
Quite frankly I wasn’t expecting the taste to turn out SO good.
You have the sweetness of the mango that is counterbalanced by the savoriness and umami of the soy sauce and chicken, ending with the crunchiness and aroma of the almonds.
This recipe is a true melting pot of flavors at each bite.
It was so good that I made it again a couple of days later.
As a sweetener I used erythritol but you can use whatever you want. Its purpose is to help to develop a glaze and add extra sweetness. It’s not mandatory but a very nice addition.
Feel free to omit the almonds if you are cutting. You can also replace almonds with sesame seeds.
This is a high-protein recipe. With 62g of protein per serving, this chicken recipe it’s great for bodybuilding,(especially during a bulking phase) or for those looking to put on muscle mass in general.
You can serve it with a salad on the side or with some mashed potatoes or oven baked fries.
This recipe is recommended for the following diets: primal, paleo, iifym.
