Coconut Mango Baked Chicken Food

OVEN FRIED COCONUT CHICKEN WITH MANGO DIPPING SAUCE

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.

COCONUT MANGO BAKED CHICKEN RECIPE

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, over low heat, gently simmer the annato seeds with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Once the oil is a golden-reddish color, turn off the heat. This should only take a couple of minutes. Strain the oil into a small bowl, and discard the seeds. Set the oil aside.
• Add the coconut milk and mango to a blender and purée until smooth, about 10 seconds. Pour this mixture into an approximately 9 x 13 x 2-inch baking dish and then stir in the cayenne pepper, and the 2 tablespoons of the annato seed oil you just made.
• Add the chicken pieces, being sure each one is well coated with the marinade. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, and ideally overnight.
• After the chicken has marinated, preheat the oven to 450°F.
• Evenly drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil -- (the portion that did not cook with the annato seeds) -- on a baking sheet. Remove the chicken pieces from the marinade and add them to the baking sheet, with a couple of inches between them. Do not rub the marinade off the chicken pieces, but do let any excess drip off into the baking pan. (Do not throw it out -- it will become a sauce later in the recipe.)
• Season both sides of the chicken pieces generously with salt and pepper, leaving them skin side up.
• Drizzle 1 tablespoon of the honey evenly over the chicken and place the baking sheet in the preheated 450°F oven. Once you see the chicken sizzling, after about 5 minutes, reduce the heat to 375°F. I remove the chicken pieces at various times to avoid overcooking the smaller pieces -- the wings should be done after about 15 minutes, the legs and thighs after about 20 to 25 minutes, and the breasts after about 30 to 35 minutes. As you remove them from the oven, place them on a large plate or platter and cover with foil. (They should have a nice golden color when they're done, and if they don't, you put them under the broiler just to brown them, about 30 seconds.)
• While the chicken is baking, add the remaining marinade to a small saucepan. Mix in the last teaspoon of honey and bring to a boil. Let it boil for about 30 seconds, then turn the heat to low and simmer gently for about 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve it with the chicken. (Here's How to Season to Taste.)

BAKED COCONUT CHICKEN TENDERS WITH MANGO CHUTNEY DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• For the chicken tenders: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Add a wire rack to a baking sheet and spray with cooking spray.
• In 3 separate shallow bowls, create a 3-step breading process. In the first bowl, add the coconut flour. In the second bowl, whisk the eggs, milk and a pinch of salt to combine. In the last bowl, add the panko, coconut, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and stir 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. Last, lay the chicken in the panko mixture, turn it over and press into the breading to coat evenly. Place on the prepared rack on the baking sheet and spray with cooking spray. Bake until golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes. If the chicken is light in color, place under the broiler for the last 2 minutes of cooking time.
• For the dipping sauce: Stir together the chutney, yogurt and jalapeno in a medium bowl.
