Caribbean Coconut Chicken Bites

This recipe translates into finger food and hors d’oeuvres as easily as it is served for a main course.

Step: 1

Place a prosciutto slice on each chicken breast. Trim prosciutto to fit inside the chicken breast with a 1/2-inch border of chicken.

Step: 2

Place 2 slices mango in the center of each prosciutto slice.

Step: 3

Roll the chicken breast lengthwise to completely enclose the mango and prosciutto. Tuck and pinch the ends to seal rolls tightly.

Step: 4

Arrange chicken rolls on a baking sheet and refrigerate until very firm, about 30 minutes.

Step: 5

Combine flour, salt, curry powder, black pepper, and thyme in a bowl. Pour mixture onto a plate.

Step: 6

Sprinkle coconut onto a third plate.

Step: 8

Slice chicken rolls into 1 to 1 1/2-inch pieces.

Roll chicken in the flour mixture and shake off any excess flour.

Step: 10

Coat chicken in the beaten egg until completely covered; allow excess egg to drip off.

Step: 11

Roll chicken in coconut.

Step: 12

Arrange the coated chicken rolls on a plate in a single layer. Cover and refrigerate to allow coating to set, 15 minutes.

Step: 13

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

Step: 14

Heat enough vegetable oil in a deep, heavy skillet to immerse chicken rolls. Turn heat to medium.

Step: 15

Fry half the chicken rolls in the hot oil until golden brown, about 4 minutes.

Step: 16

Remove chicken rolls with a slotted spoon and drain on several layers of paper towels. Repeat with remaining chicken rolls.

Step: 17

Place chicken rolls on a baking sheet.
