Spicy Mango Rice Recipe

Tired of boring white rice? Are you planning a dinner party and need an easy but exotic recipe? Then this Spicy Mango Rice Recipe is the one for you. Each bite is sweet, savory, spicy and oh so delicious.

I not only flavored the rice with mango but also added cilantro, chicken stock, and ginger. It’s the kind of recipe that people will love and ask for a second helping.

In Spanish, we often use the phrase: “esto es un arroz con mango” meaning, this is a Rice with mango. We use that phrase when things are disorganized, don’t make sense or they are contradictory because mango and rice would never go together. Until now.

This saying has been around for a long time until one person actually cooked Mango rice and discovered that the combination was amazing.

Serve this Spicy Mango Rice Recipe with chicken, fish, or beef. You can also add some more veggies to the rice if you would like.

In Venezuela, where I was born and raised, we had mango trees everywhere. I grew up eating mangoes for breakfast, lunch, snack and dinner. We made mango ice cream, cake, mousse, juice and even jam. So naturally, when I moved to the states, I started buying everything that had mango.

To make this Spicy Mango Rice Recipe I used delicious DOLE Fruit n’ Spice Chili Lime Mango Chunks. The fruit comes already seasoned, cubed and frozen. All you have to do is open your bag and use. Is that easy! You can see the little specs of chili in the rice. Yum.

DOLE Fruit n’ Spice is ALL NATURAL and comes in 3 delicious flavors: honey lime pineapple chunks, cinnamon apple slices, and chili lime mango chunks. I had the opportunity to taste all 3 flavors in the Summer Fancy Food Show in NYC and loved them.

The apple slices taste just like apple pie filling. Perfect for snacking or adding to recipes. The Pineapple was amazing! it’s perfect to eat it by itself or for smoothies. The mango, as you see, is a perfect combination of sweetness, tanginess, and spice.

Finally, I hope you can try this delicious Spicy Mango Rice Recipe at home. If you do, please upload a pic on Instagram and tag me @Livingsweetmoments or use the hashtag #LivingSweet. I promise to repost it.

    I would go with the more traditional cinnamon apple as my first choice, and would probably use it for fritters.

    That rice sounds amazing. I’d try the chili lime mangos in a mango avocado salsa pair with a chili lime salmon. Ooo or those apples would probably taste great in a nice overnight oats.

    The first flavor I would try first from Dole is the Fruit n’ Spice Chili Lime Mango Chunks. I would love to make them into spectactular margaritas with lime juice, tequila, and rock sugar.

    I might try the Honey Lime Pineapple first. I bet that would be great in a lot of Asian rice dishes. I love pineapple in rice dishes.—By the way, the 2nd Twitter follow on the entry form has no one to follow; is it meant to be for Living Sweet moments Twitter page?

    I didn’t even know these even existed! I want to try them all, but probably the pineapple first. I’d make a good sweet and sour chicken with it. Though I could imagine I’d just eat it plain too lol
