Reviews
I thought the flavors in this marinade worked very well together. I do wish I had picked a spicy chutney instead of mild. I also recommend saving some of the marinade to the side to baste with while grilling.
I made this recipe as submitted without changes. The marinade didn’t seem to add much to the chicken breasts. It was good.
Excellent! marinated only an hour. I substituted pineapple juice for orange & one mango chopped for chutney (didn’t have either) added another clove garlic and used one whole chopped chili pepper instead of sauce. Also cooked marinade down some to use as topping for chicken. Got raves for this from the family.
DELICIOUS! So moist. Lots of yummy flavor. I let the chicken sit in the marinade for only 6 hours then cooked them on the bbq. Definitely making this one again.
We really liked this! The mango chutney was a little hard to find- but this was a great marinade! Would do this again for a nice tropical meal.
Delicious! I squeezed fresh orange and lime juices. Didn’t have any fresh ginger, but used powdered. Found a really nice Mango Chutney by the Virginia Chutney Company. Not a fan of spicy so I left out the pepper sauce. Grilled it over charcoal. I would definitely use this recipe again!
A nice departure from soy based marinades. I marinated 8 hours, perhaps not long enough, I found this did not add a lot of flavor to the chicken, but what penetrated was tasty and the chicken was moist. I served with a dollop of mango chutney on the side. Thanks for sharing your recipe, Robyn.
I loved this recipe, but I just can’t convince the husband to embrace fruit in a main dish! I only marinated the chicken for a couple hours, but it still had a good flavor. I made Mango Chutney from this site (recipe by Shirley Crowley), but instead of adding it to the marinade (I had a feeling the hubby wouldn’t like it), I spread it over the chicken during the last 10 minutes of baking, then served the rest chilled on the side. I will make this again (but without the chutney), and will be sure to marinade overnight for a stronger flavor.
This is some good chicken. I prepared the mango chutney from scratch using a recipe on this website to prepare this dish. The chicken came out great and I am looking forward to preparing in the future. I did not marinade overnight due to not reading recipe prior to preparing, but when I make it again I am going to try that.
lots of flavor went into the chicken. I added a glaze of apricot preserves mixed with Ken’s italian dressing at the end of the grilling process. yum!
awesome! sauce is great and good on other things too (like rice or pasta)
This was tasty, but not particularly memorable. I might make again, only because my Mango Avocado salsa went really well with this dish. Nice for a change.
I only gave this a 4 because I HATE mango chutney! I make a mango salsa using 2 mangos, juice from 1 lime, and jalepeno, cilantro, onion and crushed pineapple to taste. You can mix it in with the marinade as you would the chutney or spoon it on top of the chicken at serving time.
absolutely delish!!
I love this recipe, I never marinate it much over an hour and it comes out wonderful. I have yet to try it on the grill though. Us Michiganders are fond of the George Forman 50% of the year.
I don’t like this recipe. I used 2 chicken breasts and fresh squeezed orange juice. I found the recipe to be too tangy from the lime juice. Maybe o.j. from the carton would have been sweeter and thus sweet enough to combat the lime. Anyway, I don’t think I’ll make this again.
I followed the instructions down to a t, I even marinaded overnight. Still, it was very very bland and had a weird taste.
Marinade didn’t seem to do much for the chicken –I could hardly taste it! If I prepare this again, I think I’ll follow the advice of some other reviewers and boil the remaining marinade down to a glaze for serving.
This was a good recipe. After marinating and grilling the chicken, I made a glaze with mango chutney, orange juice, and fresh ginger by reducing on the stove for ten minutes. Just baste during the last minute of grilling. Was a great recipe, will have again.
This recipe was really yummy but I made LOTS of alterations to it. I didn’t use mango chutney b/c I didn’t have any. I used dried ground ginger and garlic b/c I didn’t have any fresh. (I decided to make this last minute and didn’t have time to run to the store.) I also had no pepper sauce so I just added some chili pepper, red pepper, and paprika spices. I also used dried oregano instead of fresh. I also added a little fresh cilantro just b/c I had a lot of extra in my fridge. I cut the chicken into cubes and put on kabobs. It was really delicious. Thanks for the recipe…and for all of those who try it, don’t be afraid to used the dry ingredients like I did~mine tasted great!!
recipe was very tasty! my boyfriend and i enjoyed it so much we prepared it two nights in a row!
