Instructions
- 1
Cut the chicken thigh into bite-size pieces.
- 2
Marinate the chicken with cornstarch and set aside — the cornstarch locks in the juices, giving the chicken a nice, silky texture.
- 3
Quarter the onion.
- 4
Cut the red bell pepper into chunks.
- 5
Sliver the green bell pepper into 1-inch lengths.
- 6
Peel, pit, and cube the mango — slice off both sides away from the pit, score the flesh in a grid, then scoop out the cubes with a spoon. Use a ripe mango for the best sweet-tangy balance in the sauce.
- 7
In a bowl, mix the ketchup, chili sauce, oyster sauce, honey, mango juice, apple cider vinegar, sugar, and salt to make the sauce, adjusting sugar and salt to taste. Set aside.
- 8
Heat 1/2 tablespoon of the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- 9
Stir-fry the onion, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper until fragrant and slightly charred. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- 10
Heat the remaining oil in the same skillet.
- 11
Add the marinated chicken and cook until the surface turns white.
- 12
Add the mango cubes and stir continuously until well combined — don't overcook, or the mango will break apart and turn mushy.
- 13
Return the onion and bell peppers to the skillet, pour in the sauce, and toss everything together. Adjust salt and sugar to taste.
- 14
Dish out and serve immediately with steamed rice.
