How to Make Mango And Coriander Cilantro Sauce For Fish Or Chicken

  1. Combine 1 ripe mango (about 1 cup, peeled and chopped), 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, 1/4 cup chicken stock, 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper in a food processor or blender. Blend until smooth.
  2. Alternatively, mash the mango by hand and push through a fine-mesh sieve for a smoother sauce.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add 1/2 small onion (finely chopped) and sauté until softened, about 3-5 minutes.
  4. Pour in the mango puree from step 1 and stir well to combine.
  5. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  6. Stir in remaining cilantro (if using fresh). For extra heat add 1-2 teaspoons of sweet chili sauce or a dash of Tabasco sauce.
  7. Heat through thoroughly. If preparing ahead, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator and add fresh cilantro just before serving.
  8. Serve generously over your favorite cooked fish (like basa fillets – see recipe #278965 for inspiration) or chicken.
  9. Garnish with extra cilantro and serve alongside steamed vegetables or rice.
