Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Heat a large ovenproof saute pan over medium high heat. Remove chicken
from marinade and wipe off any excess. Combine the ground cumin, cotija,
salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Dust the chicken on the skin side
with the mixture.
Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in
a large skillet. Place the chicken, skin side down, in the pan and cook
until golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Turn over and place in the
oven. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until just cooked through.

Combine chicken stock, peppercorns, and garlic in a medium saucepan and cook until reduced to 3 cups. Strain into a bowl.
Place both vinegars in a separate medium saucepan and cook until reduced
by 1/2. Add the sugar and mango puree, and reduce until the sauce coats
the back of a spoon thickly.
Add the reduced chicken stock and cook for 10 minutes over medium heat
until thickened, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper.
