Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 boneless and skinless chicken breasts
Dish of water
1 1/2 tablespoons curry powder
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
Peanut oil, for frying
2 1/2 cups chicken broth or use 1 tablespoon of chicken paste with 2 1/2 cups water
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons almond-flavored liqueur (recommended: Amaretto)
Olive oil, for sautéing
4 portobello caps, sliced thin
1 garlic clove, sliced

Steps:

  • In a large heavy-bottomed pot, add 1/2-inch of oil and heat to 325 degrees F. Dip chicken in water, sprinkle curry on both sides, roll in flour and repeat for remaining chicken breast. Fry chicken in oil for 3 to 5 minutes on each side or until juices run clear when pierced. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate.
  • In a separate pot bring the broth to a boil. Sift the flour directly into the stock, and immediately start whisking. Continue to boil on medium heat until sauce starts to thicken. Stir in the liqueur.
  • In a separate skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the portobello slices and the garlic. Saute until mushrooms are tender.
  • Place chicken breast on plate, top with mushrooms, and then cover with the sauce.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe pineapple for the best flavor.
  • Be sure to remove the tough core from the pineapple before cutting it into boats.
  • If you don't have any Amaretto liqueur, you can substitute another sweet liqueur, such as Grand Marnier or Cointreau.
  • You can add other ingredients to the chicken salad, such as chopped celery, walnuts, or grapes.
  • If you're short on time, you can use store-bought chicken salad instead of making your own.
  • Serve the chicken salad in the pineapple boats immediately, or chill it for later.

Conclusion:

Amaretto chicken salad in pineapple boats is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or light meal. The combination of sweet pineapple, savory chicken salad, and nutty Amaretto liqueur is sure to please everyone. This dish is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. So next time you're looking for a quick and tasty recipe, give Amaretto chicken salad in pineapple boats a try.
