I ended up really LOVING this recipe, my boyfriend too :), but made quite a few alterations! I had eaten a similar dish at a tasty Italian place in Omaha, called Vivace's, and decided to try something similar at home. I used a yellow bell pepper, simply because I don't like green ones, and I used extra garlic salt, pepper and regular salt to pump up the flavor a little. Also, I baked my chicken at 350 degrees for around 30 minutes, then let it broil a little longer with a ton of jerk seasoning on it, while preparing the sauce, and then sliced it thinly and put it on top of the pasta after the grated parmesan. It was delicious! The kick of the jerk seasoning balanced the sweet and rich sauce SO well I thought. I also pureed half of the mango to put in with the cream, and diced the other half, which seemed to help integrate the flavor of the mango a little :) I will definitely make this again as it was a big hit with my boyfriend who loves tropical-inspired food. Thank you!

This was delicious. I've been trying to experiment more and not just cook the same foods all the time. All I had on had was a jar of mango and milk, no cream. So for the sauce I used 1/2 cup mango juice, 1/2 cup 2% milk and 2 tbsp cornstarch to thicken. I also added some sweet peppers for added color, 5 instead of 3 garlic cloves and 3 tspn ginger instead of the 1. It was very delicious! Oh and last note, I used angel hair pasta.

Loved! Didn't use the ginger because we didnt have any. Didn't use the same pasta type. Had a guest over, both my husband and guest loved it, saying it was delicious. Best recipe on here! I've made it twice now, I personally like my mango overripe and squished in this dinner, my husband likes his mango ripe and cubed. I suggest trying it both ways because the mango really changes it! My guest begs me to make this dinner when he comes over!

Really good! I added some broccoli just to make it a little healthier.

It was a good dish but not great. I didn't think the mango flavor came out very well once cooked in with all the other stuff. I would have wanted that to be stronger - that's why I gave it a 3.

I would have given this a 5 if it were not for the photo. fake photos with me lose 1 star. Since this meal was an experiment I did the same. Not going to list what I did more than I used the ingredients as stated more or less. I feel this dish is best appreciate by using the theory and experimenting. You can not fail with this mixture of flavors. Two thumbs up to the creator and you have given me so many new ideas.

maybe our mangos weren't sweet enough, it seemed like the ginger over powered. next time we'll try to make sure there's more sweetness and we think it'll be great!

I really enjoyed making this dish as well as eating it. I have worked until 8pm for 5 years, my hours have just changed so I get off at 4pm. I have time to cook. I never cooked before my husband always did. So to me this was a challenge and I loved it. I thought the flavors were good. I will use a different pasta next time. Possibly exclude the pasta and put the rest in tortillas...it tastes like a dish I get at this Mexican Restaraunt that they serve with tortillas. Thank you for the recipe!
