Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. In a food processor, puree all ingredients except the chicken until almost smooth. Prick the chicken with a fork to create small holes.

    Place the chicken in a large, shallow baking dish and massage the marinade into the meat. Cover the dish and refrigerate for 24-48 hours, depending on how rich you want the flavor.

    Preheat the grill. Grill the chicken for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until cooked through.
  2. Mango relish: Combine mango with remaining ingredients in a medium bowl and let stand at room temperature.
