Equipment

  • Baking Sheet
  • Parchment Paper
  • Mixing Bowls
  • Whisk
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Cooking tongs

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound boneless chicken tenderloins or breasts cut into nugget-sized pieces or strips
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1 1/2 cups panko or crushed corn flakes
  • 2 tablespoons whole wheat flour or cornmeal
  • 1 cup mango chutney
  • 1 tablespoon orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons jerk seasoning
  • 2 teaspoons Thai red curry paste
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 lime juice + zest of
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • sliced jalapeños for serving

Instructions
 

  • Place the cut chicken pieces in a large mixing bowl. Pour in the buttermilk and toss to coat. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  • In another bowl, combine the panko or crushed corn flakes with the whole wheat flour or cornmeal. Mix well.
  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Allow excess buttermilk to drip off the chicken pieces. Dredge each piece in the panko mixture, pressing lightly to adhere. Place coated pieces on the baking sheet in a single layer.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes until cooked through and golden brown, flipping halfway through for even crispiness.
  • While baking, combine mango chutney, orange juice, soy sauce, jerk seasoning, Thai red curry paste, water, lime juice, and lime zest in a saucepan. Simmer over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until slightly thickened.
  • Remove wings from the oven and drizzle with the sticky mango sauce. Toss to coat evenly. Return to the oven for 5 more minutes to caramelize the sauce.
  • Garnish with chopped cilantro and sliced jalapeños. Serve immediately warm and sticky.

Notes

  • Marinating the chicken in buttermilk tenderizes and adds flavor.
  • Adjust spice levels by increasing jerk seasoning or adding hot sauce for extra heat.
  • Use gluten-free panko and cornmeal for a gluten-free version.
  • Leftovers store well in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat nicely in the oven.
  • Try seasonal variations by adding fresh herbs, fruit, pumpkin puree, or warm spices to the sauce.
