Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Olive oil cooking spray, for the wire rack and chicken
1/2 cup coconut flour
2 large eggs
1/2 cup light coconut milk
1 1/2 cups whole wheat panko crumbs
1 cup shredded unsweetened coconut, preferably Bob's Red Mill
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds chicken tenders
1 cup store-bought mango chutney
1/4 cup Greek yogurt
1 jalapeno, small dice
Serving suggestions: iceberg lettuce, diced carrots, diced tomatoes, shredded red cabbage, 1 to 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

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.

Blow-Your-Mind Coconut-Mango Pie image

For several years, this pie has won my friend's very competitive family pie-making contest. I shared the recipe with her a few years back and now it holds its place as the best pie she has ever made! Crust keeps up to 1 day at room temperature, loosely covered with foil. Pie keeps up to 2 days, covered and chilled.

Provided by Tara Teaspoon

Time 3h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 ½ ounces graham crackers
½ cup sweetened shredded coconut
3 tablespoons powdered sugar
6 tablespoons butter, melted
4 large eggs, separated, divided
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
¾ cup mango puree
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 cup white sugar
1 pinch salt
2 tablespoons sweetened shredded coconut

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  • Pulse graham crackers, 1/2 cup coconut, and powdered sugar for crust together in a food processor until finely ground. Add butter; blend until well combined. Press mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch metal pie pan. Crust will be generous.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 12 to 15 minutes.
  • Beat egg yolks in a bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until thick and light in color, about 4 minutes. Beat in sweetened condensed milk, 2 minutes more. Stir in mango puree and lime juice. Pour mixture into crust.
  • Bake until just set in center when gently shaken, about 30 minutes. Cool pie completely and chill at least 2 hours.
  • To make topping, beat together egg whites, white sugar, and salt in a bowl set over a pan of simmering water. When sugar dissolves and mixture is hot to the touch, 3 to 4 minutes, remove from heat. Beat with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form, about 10 minutes. Transfer mixture to a piping bag with a large open tip or a zip-top plastic bag with 1/2 inch of a corner snipped off. Pipe onto chilled pie.
  • Set an oven rack 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler to low heat.
  • Broil pie in the preheated oven just until top is toasted, 2 to 3 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning. Sprinkle with coconut.

Tips:

  • Ensure accurate measurements: Using a kitchen scale for precise ingredient measurements is highly recommended.
  • Properly whisk the dry ingredients: Whisking the dry ingredients thoroughly ensures even distribution and prevents lumps in the batter.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough texture. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the batter: Chilling the batter for at least 30 minutes helps develop the flavors and results in a more tender crumb.
  • Use ripe mangoes: Ripe mangoes provide the best flavor and sweetness to the friands.
  • Don't overbake: Keep a close eye on the friands while baking. Overbaking can dry them out.
  • Cool completely: Allow the friands to cool completely before attempting to remove them from the pan.

Conclusion:

Indulge in the tropical flavors of coconut and mango with these delectable friands. With their tender crumb, vibrant colors, and irresistible taste, these treats are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as a sweet snack. Remember to follow the tips mentioned above for perfect results.
