Categories: Chicken

Ingredients

  • 8 oz. plain yogurt
  • 2 tbsp. minced fresh cilantro
  • 1 tbsp. honey
  • Chicken:
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 cup soft bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup chopped almonds
  • 2 tbsp. fresh minced cilantro
  • 1 1/2 tsp curry powder
  • 1 1/2 lbs. chicken breasts, cut into 1-in. wide strips
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1/4 cup canola oil

Directions

  1. Mix yogurt, cilantro and honey. Refrigerate, covered, until serving.

  2. In a shallow bowl, whisk together egg and milk. In another bowl, toss bread crumbs with almonds, cilantro and curry powder. Toss chicken strips with flour to coat lightly; shake off excess. Dip both sides in egg mixture, then in crumb mixture.

  3. In a large skillet, heat canola oil over medium heat. In batches, cook the chicken until it is golden brown, 5-6 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels. Serve chicken strips with cilantro-yogurt sauce.
