Thanks to my friend Rob, who tended bar at Maxwell’s in Hoboken, you’ll be able to taste this unusual lip smacking combo.
I added a pinch of chili for warmth and heat which breaks up the sweet punch of balsamic and mango. You rock Rob!!

Grilled Mango with Balsamic Glaze
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/8 teaspoon ground hot chili, such as Aji Amarillo, Chipotle, or cayenne
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 ripe mangoes, peeled, cut into 1-inch thick slices
Instructions
- In a small saucepan over high heat, boil the balsamic vinegar for 5 minutes to reduce by half. Stir in olive oil, chili, and salt. Cool.

Grill the mango in batches on lightly oiled grill rack, turning once, until browned and slightly softened, about 5 minutes total.

As a healthy cooking expert, health coach and TV host, 
This sounds delicious. I can imagine that a few slices of sweet mango will go down well in between mouthfuls of ribs and wings.
YUM, definitely, I love ribs and I would serve a spinach salad on the side.
Amazing Recipe,
It looks so delicious and it seems so easy to make.
I am going to cook it tomorrow.
Thank You!
