A piece of South Pacific perfection. Chicken Tahitian is a perfect combination of chicken and succulent fruits such as pineapple, papaya and mango. This sweet mixture is then added with Soy Sauce, Lime or lemon juice and Orange Juice for a delicious gathering of flavours. I normally serve this one of two ways. Either on a bed of piping hot rice or with
Low Fat Roast Potatoes. The Chicken Tahitian sauce is superb with the rice and the potatoes and can be used to make sure that nothing is left behind. Everytime I have served this, it has been incredibly popular and the recipe has been requested time and time again.
