Chili-Lime Mango Chicken Skewers or Salad Topper

Inspired by a recipe from Our Best Bites

Ingredients:
6 T olive oil
1/4 c. fresh lime juice
zest of 1 lime
1 t chili powder
1/4 t cayenne pepper
1/2 t salt
1 T sucanat (or sugar)
4 chicken tenders cut into 1 inch pieces
3 almost ripe mangos peeled and cut into 1 1/2 in cubes
1/4 c. green chilies (optional)

STEP ONE: prep mangos and chicken pieces
STEP TWO: whisk together olive oil, lime juice, lime zest, chili powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and sucanat
STEP THREE: add green chilies (mine were frozen), chicken & mango
STEP FOUR: mix and cover to marinate for 2-4 hours (I did mine overnight and it worked fine)
STEP FIVE: soak wooden skewers for 20 - 30 minutes in water
STEP SIX: thread onto skewers, alternating mango and chicken
STEP SEVEN: grill
STEP EIGHT: saute up any pieces that were too small or too mushy to stay on a skewer (you'll have to drain off some of the liquid - but super yummy over a salad)
