Let’s put is simply: crumbed chicken is a dish that makes every omnivore happy. Put it in tacos, in salad, in a bucket or with a lashing of delicious mango salsa, it always ends with the same result: happy guests (or family members).
And these coconut and sesame chicken tenders are a cut above, combining the crisp texture of shredded coconut with the earthy taste of sesame. The whole dish has a distinctly Caribbean flavour, mixing traditional island flavours of chicken and coconut with chili-infused mango salsa.
Salsas made their way to the Caribbean from central and south America via the Spanish, where islanders put their own unique spin on the flavour profile, typically fusing spices with fruit. Enter delicious mango salsa. A combination of aromatic spices, herbs, cucumber and, of course, mango.
The NEFF CircoTherm® function with added steam. makes the creation of these tenders a real treat, heating the coconut and sesame crumbed chicken evenly, and keeping the meat moist, with a carefully measured infusion of steam. After the tenders are cooked to perfection and the salsa ingredients combined, this tropical treat is ready to serve. But just because they’re cooked with steam does not mean they are soggy – the coating is crisped to perfection in the oven for a lighter treat than if they were fried.
