Ingredients

  • Chutney:
  • 2  cups  diced peeled ripe mango (about 2 mangoes)
  • 1  cup  finely chopped onion
  • 1/2  cup  water
  • 2  tablespoons  brown sugar
  • 1  tablespoon  curry powder
  • 1  tablespoon  fresh lime juice
  • 1/2  teaspoon  black pepper
  • 1/2  teaspoon  chopped peeled fresh ginger
  • 1/4  teaspoon  salt

  • Chicken:
  • 1  teaspoon  olive oil
  • 2  garlic cloves, minced
  • 1  pound  skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1  cup  light coconut milk
  • 2  tablespoons  sugar
  • 1  teaspoon  salt
  • 1 1/2  teaspoons  red curry paste
  • 1  to 2 teaspoons Thai fish sauce
  • 2  cups  broccoli florets
  • 2  cups  cauliflower florets
  • 4  cups  hot cooked penne rigate (about 2 cups uncooked tube-shaped pasta)

Preparation

To prepare chutney, combine first 9 ingredients in a medium saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes or until most of liquid evaporates and mixture is thick, stirring occasionally.

To prepare chicken, heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and chicken; sauté 5 minutes. Combine coconut milk and next 4 ingredients (coconut milk through fish sauce), stirring with a whisk. Add coconut mixture to pan; bring to a simmer. Add broccoli and cauliflower; cover and cook 7 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender, stirring occasionally. Stir in chutney and pasta; toss well to combine. Sprinkle with green onions, if desired.
