Spicy Mango Dipping Sauce

We made this sauce last night as a dipping sauce for our Shrimp and Mango Egg Rolls. It is very spicy, but in a good way. In order to moderate the heat, you could omit (or reduce) the 1 tbsp of Asian hot sauce without losing the essence of the sauce or consider turning this into a cream sauce if it is still too spicy.

Tonight the Spicy Mango Sauce was reinvented as a marinade for chicken. It would have made an excellent wing sauce, but we were cooking chicken breasts tonight, not wings. It vaguely reminds me of the mango habanero sauce from a popular chain of chicken wing outlets.
