Introducing Ezra Cohen Montreal’s Spicy Mango Habanero Chicken Skewers – a tantalizing fusion of sweet and heat, perfect to accompany a warm summer evening or backyard grilling session. The inspiration behind this recipe lies in the vibrant and complementary pairing of tropical mango and fiery habanero peppers. The sweet, luscious notes of ripe mango pair with the intense heat of habanero. This pre-made salsa not only saves you time but also ensures that every bite of your Spicy Mango Habanero Chicken Skewers is infused with a harmonious blend of flavors.

The marinade, a marriage of the pre-made salsa with a medley of spices and a touch of honey, transforms the chicken into a flavor-packed masterpiece. Ground cumin, smoked paprika, and garlic powder add depth and complexity to the dish, while honey not only provides a touch of sweetness but also helps achieve a beautiful caramelization on the grill.

Allow the chicken skewers to sizzle and sear, locking in the marinade’s flavors while imparting a smoky char that adds a layer of richness. Baste the skewers with the remaining marinade to ensure that each slider remains moist and succulent.

Serve the Spicy Mango Habanero Chicken Skewers hot off the grill, accompanied by fresh cilantro and additional mango and habanero salsa. This dish pairs wonderfully with a side of rice, quinoa, or a simple salad.
