I am loving this Slow Cooker Mango Chicken Recipe. It is full of flavor, with just the right amount of sweet. I also love how I can throw it all in my slow cooker, then it's ready when I come home from work, or driving kids around. If you need a quick and healthy recipe, this is one you need to try.

This is one of my favorite healthy recipes that pair perfectly with coconut rice (we made it last week, so good!) and the total time to make it only adds up to a few minutes of prep.

You could even make this slow cooker mango salsa chicken recipe into to some tasty chicken tacos or lettuce wraps! It is such a great recipe that you can use it in different ways to mix it up yet have a simple meal.

Storing and Other Tips

Store leftover Mango Chicken in airtight containers in the fridge. They will last for 3-4 days in the refrigerator and 4-6 months in the freezer.

If you can’t find Mango Salsa, you can use fresh or frozen mango with regular salsa and 1/4 cup of brown sugar in its place.
