Spicy Mango Chicken with Sweet Potatoes

So it isn't the prettiest looking dish in the world but I LOVVVEE the blends of spices in this dish and the way it just hits all of my tastebuds are oh so perfect! <3 everything from sweet, salty, and spicy!

Ingredients (4-5 servings):
1. 1.5 cup of sweet potatoes (cubed)
2. 3 garlic cloves (diced)
3. 14-16 oz of chicken (cubed)
4. 1-1.5 big mangoes or 2 small ones (cubed)
5. 1/4 cup of tamari gluten free light soy sauce
6. Konjac to thicken (APF or arrow root you could use corn starch but I personally don't think it's the best option)
7. 3/4 cup of water
8. 1/4 tsp of chilli powder
9. 2tsb of hot sauce (I used sambal oelek but u can use any hot sauce)
10. 2tsb of extra virgin olive oil (or canola or virg/olive oil)
11. 3 tsb of honey


****In a sauce pan boil the sweet potatoes until it's tender

1. Heat up a pan with the extra virgin olive oil and throw garlic in and cook until fragrant.
2. When the garlic is golden brown & fragrant then add in the chicken and stir it until it is no longer pink.
3. Pour in tamari soy sauce, 3/4 cup of water, honey, chilli powder and hot sauce.
4. Once everything is mixed, Add in mangoes & drained tender sweet potatoes.
5. Add in konjac as needed to thicken the sauce. =) leave to simmer to desired thickness.

And there you have it!
