Baste on a few spoonfuls of the barbecue sauce and continue to grill until you reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F when measured with a meat thermometer. I love this recipe! Talk about flavor. BOOM! Not much else to say other than – let’s get cooking! We’re using a lot of flavor-building ingredients. I’ve included the ingredients and steps in the recipe below. Let’s talk about how we make this recipe, shall we?
Mango-Habanero BBQ Chicken - The Recipe Method
First, whisk together all of the marinade ingredients together in a bowl.
Mango-Habanero BBQ Sauce Ingredients
Olive Oil. Onion. Chopped. Habanero Peppers. Diced. Garlic. Chopped. Mango. Chopped. Tomato Paste. Apple Cider Vinegar. Honey. Spicy Chili Flakes. Ground Mustard. Smoked Paprika. Mustard Powder. Ground Ginger. Brown Sugar. Salt and Pepper.
Add the garlic and cook another minute, until garlic becomes fragrant. Add remaining ingredients and stir until everything is combined. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer about 20-30 minutes. Process until smooth. If the sauce is too thick, add a ½ cup of water or more and continue to process to your preferred consistency. Serve the sauce right away, or let it sit awhile to allow the flavors to more fully develop.
How to Make BBQ Chicken on the Grill
Grilling up chicken breast on the grill is simple. First, heat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates. Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Grill the chicken 5 minutes per side to get a nice sear. I like to use my Thermapen meat thermometer from ThermoWorks (I’m an affiliate). Works great! Almost there! Serve it up with a bit of extra bbq sauce. BOOM! Done! Easy enough, right? Hey, while you’re at it, toss a few jalapeno peppers and some extra habanero peppers onto the grill while you’re at it. Bring on the heat! Or, instead of covering, add the pan to the oven and bake 15 minutes at 375 degrees F, until you reach the same internal temperature. Baste with more mango-habanero bbq sauce and serve them up! That’s it, my friends. I hope you enjoy the recipe. Let me know how it turns out for you! I’d love to hear it.
