Ingredients
-
4 chicken breasts
-
1 -1 1/2 cup flaked coconut (I say this as it depends on the size of the breasts.)
-
flour to coat chicken
-
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
-
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
-
2 eggs, lightly beaten
-
1/3 cup butter, melted
-
-
5 tablespoons apricot preserves
-
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
-
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
Instructions
- Combine coconut, pepper and garlic in a bowl (Note: If your breasts are larger and you need to use 11/2 cups of coconut add more pepper and garlic powder.).
- Dust breasts in flour shake off excess, dip breast into egg and then into coconut press mixture firmly onto breast.
- Place breasts in a lightly oiled oven proof pan, drizzle melted butter over and bake in a preheated oven 180-190°C for 25-30 minutes or until chicken breasts are browned and cooked through, turn the pan once during cooking.
- Apricot Dipping Sauce.
- While the breasts are cooking combine all the sauce ingredients in a pan and heat and stir until well combined. You can leave the sauce on a low heat while the breasts finish cooking, just stir occasional. This also helps the curry flavour to come through.
- Serve with your favourite vegetables and fries or mash what ever you like.
