This mango salsa is absolutely delicious! I've been making this one for several years now and my family loves it. Some reviewers have said the cilantro is overpowering but personally, I love the flavor of cilantro. The only change I've made is to add a couple of chopped fresh jalapenos. The leftover salsa is great with tortilla chips or crackers.

I think this is a wonderful dinner! My sister made it first, then I did, now everybody that every eats this from my sister and I always ask us for the recipe. What a great chicken dinner that steers away from the regular same old stuff. We will be making this for a long time!!

This is one of the best mariniated chicken recipes - quick and easy.

I added the mango salsa onto some couscous with Tilapia underneath. It was awesome. My whole family loved it.

I substituted the chicken for fish since we were in the mood for it; that wasn't the problem. The salsa just tasted like cilantro. I went through all that work, cutting up the mango, which was not easy, and all I tasted was one flavor. Very disappointing!

I love this recipe! The mango salsa was very yummy. My husband said it was like eating in a restaurant! Very easy to make.

The chicken tasted amazing and I thought it was generally easy to make. I suggest using a mango that is barely ripe for a better texture. I will definitely make it in the future.
