Coconut Chicken Fingers With 30 Minute Mango Chutney

My idea for this dish was to prepare a chutney that didn’t take hours. this one is quick, easy, and the flavor adds to the coconut chicken with a tangy sweetness. You will end up with approx 1 cup of chutney. the batter was adapted from one i use for coconut shrimp. I prefer using a wet batter method for coconut breaded items. This recipe was created for rsc #8.

Steps

Start the chutney.
Place ginger into mini chopper and pulse until finely minced.
Add mango pieces , jalapeno , and half of the vinegar.
Pulse until finely chopped , but not pureed.
Pour into heavy bottomed saucepan and add the remaining chutney ingredients.
Bring to boil , then reduce to medium heat.
Stir often to prevent sticking.
Cook until thickened , approx 23 minutes.
While the chutney is cooking cut chicken breasts into fingers , 4-5 per breast depending on size.
Make batter.
Mix flour , salt , ground ginger , black pepper , water , & lemon juice in large bowl.
Add chicken fingers & let rest.
Mix breading.
Mix the coconut & breadcrumbs.
Set aside.
Fill pan with oil to depth or heat deep fryer.
Heat oil.
Take wet , batter coated chicken fingers and roll in the coconut mixture , pressing lightly to ensure the coating sticks.
Drop into hot oil , not crowding the fingers in the pan.
Fry until golden & turn with tongs.
Complete frying until all sides are golden',.
