Crunchy Chicken Wraps

This is a great recipe, that makes you feel healthy....even if the chicken is fried..

you can use the mango salsa recipe in here too!

what you need:

6 almonds, slivered

sesame seeds, a handful

breadcrumbs 1.5 cups (or more if needed)

combine the breadcumbs, almonds and sesame seeds

 to make a coating for the chicken

chicken breast 

cut in strips, or nuggets

MARINADE:

3 tbsp lemon juice

2 tsp crushed garlic

1 tsp crushed ginger

1 tbsp your favorite chili sauce

1 tsp salt

1 tsp pepper

(let marinade for at least an hour)

then after, dredge in flour

then egg wash (you can put salt and pepper in the egg wash too)

and then the coating

next: pan fry

until....well....that color (down below)

:)

a plateful takes about an hour to fry

layer it, put some chicken, garlic mayo (recipe in sidebar), spinach leaves

and some mango salsa (recipe in may 2011 sidebar)

you can even forget the bread, and put it in a lettuce, or mini spinach wrap!

A la cuisine!

Fried Chicken Kebabs

A different take on ground chicken:

What you need:

1.5 lbs Ground Chicken

1 cup of 4 cheese mexcian or mild cheddar cheese 

2 tbsp rough chopped onion

1 tbsp chopped cilantro

1 tsp ginger paste

2 tsp garlic paste (or fresh)

1 jalapeño (seeded and minced)

1 tsp roasted cumin (powdered)

1 tsp chili powder

1 tsp garam masala

1.5 tsp salt

.5 tsp pepper

2 eggs, beaten

1.5 cups of bread crumbs

1.5 cup oil

In a large bowl, combine he ground chicken with onion, cilantro, ginger, garlic, jalapeno, cumin, garam masala, salt, chili powder and cheese.

then roll it into small spheres

dip into egg wash

(if you want, you can add salt and pepper to the wash to add flavor)

then dredge in bread crumbs

deep fry in pan

you can serve this with chutney on the side. 

I made an unripe mango chutney with cilantro, green mango, 3 tsp sugar, 1 chili and some water.

blend it up, and you have chutney to match your kebabs!
