  • Servings 32

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds chicken tenders
  • 4 tablespoons thai red curry paste
  • 1 can coconut milk
  • 2 cups Progresso™ panko bread crumbs
  • Oil for frying

DIP INGREDIENTS

  • 1/4 cup agave nectar
  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha
  • 1 teaspoon fish sauce
  • 1 tablespoon chile flake (or less to taste)
  • Pinch salt

Steps

  • 1
    Mix the coconut milk with the curry paste. Add a teaspoon of salt. Cut the tenders the short way so you end up with about 30 nugget-sized pieces. Mix the chicken into the curry mixture. Allow to marinate in the fridge for 1 hour.

    Meanwhile, mix all the dip ingredients.
  • 3
    When the chicken is about ready, get the breadcrumbs onto a flat dish, and bring the frying oil to 350°F.
  • 4
    One by one, shake some of the marinade off each piece of chicken and dredge it in the breadcrumbs, pressing to make sure the breading sticks on. After you do about 5, fry them as you start breading the next batch. Fry only about 4-5 minutes until well browned and cooked through.

    Serve with the dipping sauce.
