Spicy mango habanero glazed chicken for a tropical twist.

In a medium bowl, mix together the diced mango, chopped habanero, honey, soy sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Prepare the Marinade

Place the chicken thighs in a large zip-top bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, making sure each piece is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for best flavor.

Marinate the Chicken

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates with olive oil.

Preheat the Grill

Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the chicken is nicely charred.

Grill the Chicken

Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Drizzle with any leftover marinade if desired, and enjoy your spicy mango habanero chicken!
