Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the chicken to the skillet and cook until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the chicken and set it aside.
In the same skillet, add minced garlic and grated ginger. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Stir in the curry powder and cook for another 30 seconds to release its aroma.
Pour in the coconut milk and chicken broth, stirring to combine.
Add the diced mango to the skillet and simmer the sauce for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to blend and the mango to soften.
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet. Cook them in the sauce for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F).
Stir in the lime juice and sprinkle with fresh cilantro before serving.
Serve the Coconut Mango Chicken over cooked jasmine rice. Enjoy!
