Do you love tropical flavors such as coconut, lemon, banana, kiwi and the spice Cardamom? Well, you will certainly enjoy this dish if you do.

Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 c lemon juice
1 can(s) (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
1/3 c milk
1/2 c flaked coconut
1/8 tsp ground cardamom (i used 1/4 tsp)
6 medium very firm bananas, halved lengthwise (i used just 3)
3 c cornflake crumbs
5 to 6 lb chicken pieces (i used chicken breasts cut up)
3/4 c butter or margarine, melted, divided
sliced kiwifruit and starfruit, optional

Steps:

  • 1. In a food processor or blender, blend the lemon juice, condensed milk, milk, coconut and cardamom until smooth. Pour into a bowl.
  • 2. Dip bananas into milk mixture; roll in cornflakes and set aside.
  • 3. Dip chicken into remaining milk mixture; roll in the remaining cornflakes and place in two greased 13-in. X 2-in. baking pans.
  • 4. Drizzle with 1/2 cup of the melted butter. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degress for 1 hour [or less if it is chicken breasts]. Arrange bananas over the chicken. Drizzle with remaining butter. Bake 15 minutes (I just baked it for 10 more minutes)longer or until chicken juices run clear.
  • 5. Garnish with Kiwi and Starfruit if desired. (I laid my sliced kiwifruit on to toasted coconut) Yields 6-8 servings.
  • 6. Inside the baked banana. Note: Only make enough bananas for those who are eating. They do not make for a good reheat and will need to be tossed. But the chicken is fine to reheat.
