Instructions

1
Whisk mango nectar, lime juice, olive oil, honey, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne, salt, and pepper into a marinade. Add chicken pieces and toss to coat. Marinate at least 20 minutes at room temperature or refrigerate up to 8 hours.
2
Preheat grill to medium-high heat (400–425°F). Thread marinated chicken onto skewers, leaving a small gap between pieces for even cooking. Reserve the marinade.
3
Grill skewers 5–6 minutes per side, brushing with reserved marinade in the last 2 minutes, until lightly charred, slightly caramelized, and an instant-read thermometer reads 165°F. Rest 3 minutes. Serve over rice or in lettuce wraps, garnished with fresh cilantro, lime wedges, and mango salsa.
