BBQ JERK CHICKEN WITH CARIBBEAN MANGO SLAW

Steps:

• Combine the jerk seasoning, garlic powder and onion powder in a small bowl. Rub the chicken with the jerk mixture (do not over season, or the dry rub will cake up and become too thick) and marinate, refrigerated, at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
• Combine the mango puree, honey, sriracha, lime juice, beer and some salt and pepper in a small saucepan and heat until the mixture comes to a boil; set aside.
• Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook without moving for 3 minutes. Flip over and brush lightly with the mango glaze. Continue cooking until cooked all the way through (to an internal temperature of 165 degrees F), about another 3 minutes. Remove from the grill and brush with more glaze. Tent loosely with foil to keep warm. Serve with Caribbean Mango Slaw.
• Combine the olive oil, honey, vinegar, mustard, sriracha, lime juice and salt and pepper to taste in a large bowl and whisk until well blended. Add the carrots, parsley, mint, cabbage and most of the almonds and mango and toss until well coated. Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with the remaining almonds and mango.

CARIBBEAN COCONUT CHICKEN BITES WITH MANGO CREAM

Steps:

• Mango cream:.
• Place the mango in a mini food processor and pulse till it is a pulp.
• Scrape all of this into a bowl adding the sour cream, sugar, and extract. Mix well and set aside. Do not refrigerate this, it is best served at room temperature.
• For Chicken -- in a bowl place 1 cup plus 2 T flour and set aside.
• In another bowl place the remaining flour (1 cup plus 2 T), sugar, and salt.
• Stir milk and extracts into this. The mixture should resemble a thin pancake batter (you may have to add a little more milk).
• Set this aside.
• Place the bread slices in a food processor and pulse till you have fine crumbs, measure out approx 1-1/2 cups.
• Place these on a pie pan and place in a 350°F oven till lightly toasted and dried out.
• Mix toasted bread crumbs in a third bowl with the coconut.
• Preheat a deep fryer with oil according to the directions of the fryer.
• Place a cooling rack on a large cookie sheet and cover the rack with paper towels.
• Now one at a time drag each chicken bite through the pan with just flour, then using a slotted spoon drop it into the milk mixture coat well and use the spoon to retrieve it.
• Drop the coated bite into the coconut mixture being careful not to get to much of the excess wet mixture into the coconut. cover evenly with the coconut mixture and set on a second cookie sheet.
• After all the chicken pieces are ready begin to cook them in the hot oil. Just do a few at a time to keep your oil from cooling to much and becoming gummy. The heat time will vary a great deal on this because it is raw meat and it depends on how big of chunks you make them. Make sure they are cooked completely, you may want to test the first one out and see how long it takes to get it done thoroughly.
• I cook mine for approx 5 minutes and the batter should turn a nice golden brown.
• Remove from oil and drain on the cookie sheet that has been prepared with paper towels. Serve with mango cream.
