  • Chicken With Mango Barbeque Sauce

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

    1 onion, diced (about 1 cup)

    1 red pepper, diced (about 1 cup)

    3 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped

    1 teaspoon salt

    Freshly ground black pepper

    1/2 teaspoon ground allspice

    1/3 cup red wine vinegar

    3 tablespoons molasses

    2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

    2 tablespoons lime juice

    1/4 cup low-sodium tomato sauce

    1 mango, diced (about 1 1/2 cups)

    2 to 3 jalapenos, minced

    2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 3/4 pound each)

    Heat the oil in a medium-sized skillet over medium-high. Add the onions and cook until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the red peppers, garlic, salt and pepper, and allspice and cook for 2 minutes more. Stir in the vinegar, molasses, Worcestershire sauce, lime juice and tomato sauce and cook for 1 minute more. Transfer the mixture into a bender and add the mango and jalapeno. Blend until smooth.

    Put 1 cup of the barbeque sauce into a sealable plastic bag with the chicken and marinate for 1 hour.
    Preheat the broiler. Put the chicken on a broiler pan and discard the marinade. Broil the chicken on high for about 12 minutes, turning once. Let the meat rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Spoon about 1/2 cup of barbeque sauce over the meat slices and serve.
