Mango Chicken & Rice
Mango Chicken and Rice is one of those really unique dishes that none of us are quite sure where it originated from. My mom says it's Burmese, my sister says it's Continental, my aunt says Anglo Indian but the honest truth is that none of us really know for sure. The flavors in this dish are wildly delicious and unique and it makes for a very interesting dinner conversation. I’m a huge mango fan so anything with mango in it is automatically delicious in my book. I’m sure once you try it, you guys are going to love it as much we do.
