Basil Chicken With Coconut Mango Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• For the chicken tenders: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place a wire rack on a sheet pan and spray with cooking spray.
• Create a 3-step breading process in 3 separate shallow bowls. Put the coconut flour in the first bowl, eggs and coconut milk in the second bowl, whisked to combine, and panko, coconut, salt and pepper in the last bowl, stirred to combine.
• Pat the chicken dry and add it to the coconut flour, shaking off any excess, then dip it in the egg mixture, making sure to coat the chicken entirely. Lastly, lay the chicken in the panko mixture, turning it over and pressing into the breading to coat evenly. Place on the wire rack. Spray the chicken with additional cooking spray. Bake until golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes. (See Cook's Note.)
• For the dipping sauce: Whisk together the chutney, yogurt and jalapeno in a medium bowl.
• To serve this as a salad, combine the iceberg, carrots, tomatoes and red cabbage together in a bowl. Whisk the apple cider vinegar into the mango dipping sauce to make a dressing. Lightly dress the salad with the mango dressing. Top with the coconut chicken and serve.

Steps:

• Slice each chicken breast lengthwise into 3 or 4 thick strips. Lightly oil a large wide saucepan and set over medium heat. When hot, add chicken. Stir often until chicken loses its pink color, 4 to 5 minutes. Meanwhile, place onion on a cutting board, cut side down, then thinly slice. Peel mango. Slice fruit from stone in large pieces then cut into thick bite size strips.
• When chicken is no longer pink, remove to a large plate. Pour coconut milk into pan. Pour coconut milk into pan. Increase heat to medium-high. Add onion, dried basil, cumin, chili flakes and salt. Boil, uncovered and stirring often, until sauce is reduced by half, about 4 to 5 minutes. Return chicken and any juices to pan. Reduce heat to medium.
• Add mango and stir often, uncovered, until chicken is springy when pressed, 6 to 8 minute Slice lime in half and cut one half into 6 think wedges. Coarsely chop basil. When chicken is cooked, squeeze juice from half of lime over top. Sprinkle with fresh basil. I found this recipe is great with rice noodles and snow peas. Serve with lime wedges.
