Ingredients
- 5 medium chicken fillets cut into strips
- 200 g panko breadcrumbs
- 75 g desiccated coconut
- 8 tbsp sweet chilli sauce
- 4 tbsp soy sauce
- 1.5 tbsp honey
- 1 garlic cloves grated
- 1.5 tsp rice wine vinegar
- Zest of 1 lime finishing touch
Instructions
- Prepare sauce: simmer sweet chilli, soy, honey, garlic, and rice vinegar.
- Dip chicken strips in egg or milk or buttermilk (optional), coat in panko and coconut.
- Shallow fry on the pan to get a golden colour for a few minutes on each side, then transfer to the oven to cook. Alternatively sprtiz with oil and air fry. I find for best results, spritz them again mid way through cooking in the airfryer.
- Drizzle sauce over chicken when cooked, sprinkle with sesame seeds and a squeeze of lime juice.
