Coconut Lime Chicken Pieces Recipes

Steps:

• Slice chicken breasts in half horizontally, then cut into thin strips. Place chicken strips in a bowl; stir in lime juice to marinate at least 1 hour and up to 2 hours.
• Place 1/4 cup honey into a bowl; whisk coconut and flour together in another bowl. Dip chicken strips into honey to coat; roll chicken through flour mixture to coat. Discard excess honey and coconut mixture.
• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; fry chicken pieces until browned, crisp, no longer pink at the center, and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should reads at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Sprinkle with lime zest.

Steps:

• On the top of the stove heat a skillet / saute or frying pan.
• Add the olive oil to stop the chicken from sticking.
• Brown the chicken breasts on both sides for colour only.
• Place the browned chicken in an oven proof dish.
• Add to the coconut cream the lime zest, lime juice and chilli (to taste if required) and mix well.
• Pour over the chicken the coconut/lime/chilli mix.
• Place in a moderate to hot oven until cooked - 20 / 30 minutes depending on the size of the chicken pieces.
• Use the cooking juices as a sauce when serving.

Steps:

• If using a glazed clay pot, soak for 15 minutes in water before using - do not preheat oven.
• If cooking conventionally, pre-heat oven to 180°C.
• Chop chicken into large chunks, about 6cm (2 1/2") square.
• In a small bowl, combine garlic, onion, lemon grass, ginger, chili, shrimp paste (if using) and oil - mix well being sure to break up shrimp paste.
• If using shredded coconut, dry fry over medium heat in a large frying pan, tossing frequently until light brown - be careful not to let it burn.
• Add onion mixture to the pan and fry for about 30 seconds until aromatic.
• Add chicken pieces and fry briefly for 3-4 minutes until lightly browned.
• Add coconut milk (reserve coconut cream for later), lime zest, brown sugar, vinegar and fish sauce (if using instead of shrimp paste).
• Transfer contents of frying pan to soaked clay pot (or to crock pot or oven-proof casserole dish).
• For clay pot, place into a cold oven, set temperature to 180°C and, when oven reaches set temperature, cook for 60 minutes.
• For conventional cooking, place boiling contents of frypan in ovenproof casserole, cover with a lid and place in pre-heated oven for approx 40 minutes.
• For crock pot, place boiling contents of frypan in crock pot and cook for 4-6 hours.
• At the end of cooking time, remove lid, stir in coconut cream and 1 heaped teaspoon bottled minced coriander (if using).
• Cook, uncovered, for a further 10 minutes for sauce to thicken slightly (do not expect a thick sauce).
• Remove from oven and stir in the juice of HALF the lime (or to taste).
• Taste and add a little salt if necessary.
• Serve over steamed jasmine rice and garnish with coriander leaves.

Steps:

• Slice chicken breasts in half horizontally, then cut into thin strips. Place chicken strips in a bowl; stir in lime juice to marinate at least 1 hour and up to 2 hours.
• Place 1/4 cup honey into a bowl; whisk coconut and flour together in another bowl. Dip chicken strips into honey to coat; roll chicken through flour mixture to coat. Discard excess honey and coconut mixture.
• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; fry chicken pieces until browned, crisp, no longer pink at the center, and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should reads at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Sprinkle with lime zest.

Steps:

• In a large glass bowl, combine lime zest and juice, ginger, garlic, sugar, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Slowly whisk in coconut milk until mixture is smooth. Submerge chicken in marinade, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 and up to 12 hours.
• Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Cover a rimmed baking sheet with foil and fit with a wire rack. Remove chicken from marinade and shake to remove excess. Arrange in a single layer on rack, skin side up. Roast until an instant-read thermometer registers 165 degrees, 30 to 35 minutes. Serve with suggested accompaniments, if desired.

Steps:

• In a small bowl mix together lime zest, lime juice, and coconut milk. Prick chicken strips several times with a fork then place into coconut milk mixture. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour to overnight. Fill a heavy duty pot with 4 tablespoons oil and turn heat to low - medium heat (a 4 on my stove). Place corn starch in one bowl, eggs in another and coconut flakes in a third. Pull out one chicken strip from coconut milk and place into corn starch. Roll around cornstarch until well coated. Transfer chicken to egg and coat well. Transfer chicken to coconut and coat well. Place on a plate and continue the same process with remaining chicken. Once done, oil should be hot and ready. Place prepared chicken into oil a few pieces at a time. Cook until chicken is golden in color, flipping as needed. Chicken should reach an internal temperature of 170*F if tested with a digital food thermometer. While chicken is cooking, pour coconut lime marinade into a sauce pan. Bring to a boil stirring regularly. This is the same marinade the chicken was in so we want to kill off any chicken juice. Allow to boil for 1 - 2 minutes. Then remove from heat. In a small bowl combine 1 Tablespoon corn starch & 1 Tablespoon water and mix until cornstarch is dissolved. Pour mixture into coconut lime marinade and whisk constantly until mixture thickens. Serve sauce as a dip or pour over cooked chicken. Serve Immediately.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, bring the rice, water, coconut milk, sugar and salt to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender., Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the lime juice, soy sauce, lime zest, ginger, vinegar and honey; set aside. In a large skillet, saute chicken in canola and sesame oils until no longer pink. Add lime mixture to the pan. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Sprinkle with coconut and cilantro. Fluff rice with a fork and serve with chicken mixture.
