"Who knew chicken wing flavor packs could double as a chili seasoning? I didn’t, but I thought, mango habanero sounds so yummy, so why not give it a try? I am so glad I did! I will be exploring more seasoning packets in the future when making my soups, stews, and chilis. You will see in the recipe only uses a half packet of the season. That is because, while I love the flavor of peppers, I really don’t like the heat, and neither do my kiddos. Feel free to use more if you want that extra bit of spice...."
