on Jul 13, 2016, Updated Aug 30, 2020 Has it really been a week since I posted a new recipe for you guys? I’m hiding below my pillow but please don’t be mad. Because these baked coconut chicken tenders with mango mustard dipping sauce are going to make up for everything. And because I’ve been on an amazing trip sponsored by Teabox all the waaaaaay in Assam and that’s where this post is coming from! I’m going to tell you all about my trip and how I’ve been travelling through Assam sampling the food, the culture and the beautiful teas as soon as I’m back. And if you’ve been following me on Snapchat (my_foodstory) you already know what I’ve been up to! But today let’s quickly talk about why you need to make these baked coconut chicken tenders STAT! Remember the best ever dipping sauce from last week which was a crazy combination of mango and mustard? Ummm these baked coconut chicken tenders and that mango mustard sauce were kinda made for each other. Because it’s all so tropical and so fresh and so summery. Because you want a little bit of summer even when it’s not and this combination will keep you feeling happy and sunny all year long! Plus it’s baked, so heaaaaaalthy and is dipped in a spicy coconut mixture which sort of crisps up in the oven and gives you that amazing golden crust that all chicken tenders must have! I’m telling you, right this minute, I almost wish I was back home with a mug of beer, feet up on the couch and biting into these juicy chicken tenders. I’m really in love with mango and coconut as ingredients. If you’ve been around, you know how obsessed I’ve been with mangoes this summer because umm, they go away for an entire year once seasons done. And coconut is like my second love – curries, bakes, desserts – I need to use it in everything! Hello juicy chicken with crispy coconut coating all around it that’s calling my name. Who’s ready to partaaaaaaaay? raises hand If you are looking for a party appetizer that’s super easy and will keep everyone talking, this is it!
