Mango Glaze
Method
Preparing the Chicken
- 1
Marinate the Chicken
In a bowl, combine olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Mix well. Add the chicken breasts and coat them evenly with the marinade. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.
- 2
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat while the chicken is marinating.
- 3
Grill the Chicken
Once marinated, place the chicken breasts on the grill. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Making the Mango Glaze

Reduce heat to low and let the glaze cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.
