broiled chutney condiment curry dinner main dish mango mango chutney recipe side dish spicy sweet tilapia

Mango Chutney over Broiled Tilapia

A few weeks ago, shortly after I came back from BlogHer Food, I received a box of gorgeous mangoes in the mail from National Mango Board, who had hosted one of the events at the conference. There was some big, juicy mangoes delivered, and I wanted to create something special with them. I’ve already played with mangoes on my blog before, sharing with you recipes for a mango salsa as well as a taco salad. Since it’s mango season, I buy these every time I’m at the store and add them to my daily smoothies.

However, I decided to try something different with my special delivery. It came out so delicious! I created my own version of a mango chutney, using crushed pineapples to really add to the sweetness and curry and chile pepper flakes to add some spice. I served it over some simple broiled tilapia over a bed of quinoa and brown rice and it was a delicious meal.

Various forms of chutney do originate in India, which is why the curry is used. You can also find varieties used in the Caribbean and South Africa as well. There is a great balance between sweet and spicy (which I happen to love) and there is also a richness that the ingredients add when combined. If you’re not a fan of curry, you can replace the ingredient with cumin. It will add the depth but will change the flavor just a bit.

This recipe makes a lot of mango chutney, you can halve it if you like. After this meal I was adding it to everything I could think of, it was delicious!

Mango Chutney Ingredients:

  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon yellow curry
  • 1/2 teaspoon red chile pepper flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard powder
  • a pinch of ground cloves
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons ginger, grated
  • 6 cups diced mango
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup cider vinegar
  • 1/2 cup pineapple juice
  • 1/2 cup crushed pineapple
  • 1/2 cup raisins
  • salt & pepper plus additional brown sugar, to season
Broiled Tilapia Ingredients:
  • olive oil spray
  • 6 tilapia filets
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon parsley
  • 1 lemon
Directions:
In a medium saucepan, over medium heat, warm your oil.
Once oil has begun to warm, add the curry, red chile peppers flakes, cinnamon, dry mustard and cloves.
Whisk spices and oil together and continue to cook over medium heat. The spices will become fragrant, usually after a few minutes. Stir every so often.
After about 5-7 minutes, add the chopped onion and sprinkle with the salt. 
Stir onions into spice and oil combination, continue to cook over medium heat until the onions have softened.
Add garlic and ginger. Stir and combine, cooking about a minute while garlic and ginger soften.
Add diced mangoes and brown sugar. 
Stir into mixture, the brown sugar will cause it to all caramelize and sweeten up!
Here’s how it should look once the sugar starts to liquefy and soften the mango.
Add the cider vinegar, pineapple juice and crushed pineapple. Mix together and simmer.
Add raisins. Continue to simmer until it all begins to thicken. 
Usually about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally.
While the chutney is finishing up, begin to season the tilapia fillets. Spray the pan with olive oil, then sprinkle the seasonings over the fillets, flipping and seasoning both sides.
Turn your oven to broil, move top rack to the highest setting and broil the fish for about 5 minutes each side, or until flaky. Once finished, squeeze the lemon over all the fillets.
This is how it will look when it’s just about done. Once it starts to get thick it will thicken quickly. 
Remove from heat, add salt and pepper to taste and any additional brown sugar you may want (I added half a handful and mixed) then set aside until ready to serve.
I served this with brown rice and quinoa, but it would be equally delicious with a salad or some steamed broccoli or roasted veggies. 
Top with the chutney and serve. Any remaining mango chutney can be stored and refrigerated. It’s great over meats, fish, chicken, even pork! Enjoy!

Disclosure: I was provided free product from National Mango Board to try and was not compensated for this post. All thoughts are my own.

      Hi Kim! So funny, the night I made this I was actually going to pair the chutney with my pork chops recipe (https://mamaharriskitchen.com/2012/07/savory-boneless-pork-chops_24.html) but I didn’t have all the ingredients!

      The chutney is delicious, it’s great over many things!

[Sponsored]: Summertime is coming and will be here before we know it! You all know that I love easy meals during the warmer months, and I also love a good meal in a bowl. It’s also Vidalia Onion season 🧅 so I paired this seasonal favorite with pan-seared shrimp and veggies as a light rice bowl using your choice of grains.☺️This meal is an absolute delight!

(AD) There has been a lot of cooking going on this year, so I’ve tried to make life a bit easier by getting creative with my leftovers. These pulled pork totchos are a great example of leftovers with a few key ingredients to create something new to keep our meals exciting. Adding a few key ingredients like @lamorenausa adobo peppers and jalapeños and carrots definitely livens up something simple. La Morena peppers are hand selected, using only the highest quality peppers to bring you authentic home style flavors of Mexico. I purchased my La Morena items from my local Safeway, but you can find them at your favorite grocery store in the international food section. #PayItForwardwithLM #VivaLaMorena #WeCanWithLaMorena 
 
INGREDIENTS:
- 32 oz tater tots
- 2 cups shredded cheese (Mexican blend + Pepper Jack)
- 2 cups prepared bbq pulled pork (check my pulled pork sliders recipe!)
- 1/2 can La Morena Adobo Peppers & Sauce
- 2 tablespoons sour cream 
- 2 tablespoons ranch dressing
- 1 cup pico de Gallo
- 1/2 cup guacamole
- 3 chopped green onions 
- 3-4 La Morena jalapeños and carrots, sliced

INSTRUCTIONS:
Prepare tater tots as instructed, in air fryer or oven. Heat oven to 450°. 
Cover the bottom of a large cast iron skillet with the cooked tater tots. 
Top with 1 1/2 cup of cheese. 
Combine the chopped adobo peppers and sauce with the prepared bbq pulled pork. Spread the pulled pork mixture on top of the tater tots, then top with the remaining cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes.
Top with sour cream, ranch, pico de Gallo, guacamole, green onions, and sliced jalapeños and carrots.

Enjoy!! 😋

Hello Instagram fam! 💖 There’s some new faces around here and it’s been a while since I showed mine!

I’m Dawn, creator of Mama Harris’ Kitchen, and I’m so glad you’re here with me! In this space I share my family-friendly recipes for all occasions, whether it be a 30-minute meal for those busy weeknight dinners or a full spread for entertaining a crowd - and everything in between.

Mama Harris’ Kitchen began back in 2012, in fact it’s 8 years this month! 🥳  What started as a way to document my newfound cooking hobby while managing my “new” life as a stay-at-home wife and mom to a 1 and 3 year along with teens and preteens, and it quickly grew into what it is now - a recipe resource for busy families like mine that enjoy flavorful and comforting home-cooking using pantry staples along with fresh and local ingredients as often as possible. 

🍿Five fun facts about me:
1. I LOVE elephants! 🐘 I collect a lot of elephant items, whether it’s trinkets or  artwork, notepads etc. I love what elephants symbolize and I truly love anything elephant related.
2. I’m a total plant lady! 🌱 I have about 35 houseplants, give or take, and there’s still more on the list of wants. Plants have become such a peaceful outlet for me, and I feel that they really center me within my space. I love the element plants bring to your space and the feel of your home with them in it, and new leaves are so exciting!
3. I have seven tattoos and I have plans for about eight more. 💉 Those that know me aren’t surprised, but those that follow me here tend to find it a bit surprising. 🙃
4. I’ve been a mother for a long time, over half my life! I’ve also been a lot of different “types” of mom - teen mom, single mom, working mom, stepmom, stay at home mom, PROUD mom, military mom, mother in law - the list goes on. No matter what, motherhood looks different for everyone and there’s unique challenges and experiences each mother faces. Please be gentle with yourself! ❤️At the end of the day we’re all just trying our best!
5. I’m a bit of an introvert, and often struggle with the “social” aspect of social media. I tend to go silent sometimes, but I’m working on it.

☀️Thank you for joining me here!
