Number Of Ingredients 6

1/3 cup almonds
1/3 cup unsweetened coconut (dried or fresh)
1/8 teaspoon curry powder
1 pinch salt
4 large chicken breast halves (skinless)
1/3 cup butter, melted

  • Preheat oven to 350 deg. Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with non-stick spray or grease it with butter.
  • Chop the almonds in a food processor and place in a shallow dish. Add the grated coconut, curry powder and salt. Set aside.
  • Prepare the chicken by rinsing it under cool water. Remove any fat deposits and pat dry with a paper towel. Lay on a paper towel while you melt the butter.
  • Place the melted butter in a small bowl or melt the butter in the bowl in a microwave.
  • Dip each piece of chicken in the melted butter, then in the almond coconut mixture. Place the coated chicken in the baking dish in a single layer. drizzle any leftover butter over the chicken and sprinkle with remainder of the coconut almond mixture.
  • Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour until the chicken is thoroughly cooked through.
