Nutritional values

The fine chicken breast fillet is extremely low in fat and rich in protein. Mango not only provides the exotic extra kick, but also provides plenty of vitamin C and provitamin A.

You can also replace the chicken filet with turkey breast at will; calorie and fat content are about the same.
