This Caribbean Chicken recipe is one of my go to weeknight dinners because it comes together in under an hour and tastes like you spent way more time in the kitchen than you actually did. The combination of duck sauce, marinara, and mango hot sauce creates this amazing sweet and savory flavor profile that just transports you straight to the tropics. I love using fresh pink grapefruit juice in this dish not only for its bright, citrusy punch but also because grapefruit is packed with vitamin C, which is great for boosting your immune system. The bread crumb coating keeps the chicken moist and tender while giving you that satisfying crunch, and the nectarine slices add a beautiful touch of natural sweetness at the end. Trust me, your family is going to love this one.
