Coconut Chicken Goujons with Sticky Korean Sauce

Crispy coconut-crusted chicken goujons tossed in a sticky, sweet-and-spicy Korean-inspired sauce. Quick to prepare and full of flavour, they’re finished with a zing of lime and a sprinkle of sesame seeds — perfect for a fun weeknight dinner or sharing as a crowd-pleasing snack.

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

Method

  • 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.
