Instructions

  1. 1

    {'id': 'step_0', 'step': 1, 'text': 'Place mango on a plate and leave at room temperature until thawed, about 30 minutes. Mash slightly and set aside.'}

  2. 2

    {'id': 'step_1', 'step': 2, 'text': 'When mango is almost thawed, rub chicken with salt and tenderize with a fork. Transfer to a large glass or ceramic bowl. Pour on tequila and move chicken around in it with the fork. Marinate until tender, about 10 minutes.'}

  3. 3

    {'id': 'step_2', 'step': 3, 'text': 'Add mango to the chicken-tequila mixture, along with hot sauce, cider, and garlic. Let sit for at least 10 minutes or longer if you have the time.'}

  4. 4

    {'id': 'step_3', 'step': 4, 'text': 'Heat oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Stir in onion. Cover with a lid and slightly caramelize for 3 to 4 minutes. Add chicken-mango mixture and increase heat to high. Cook, uncovered, until alcohol had cooked off, about 5 minutes. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 5 to 8 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).'}

    {'id': 'step_4', 'step': 5, 'text': 'Cut chicken breasts into large pieces and mix it all up.'}
