4 chicken breast halves, skinned and boned
4 slices mangoes, about 1/2 inch thick
1 large egg, beaten
1 cup coconut, flaked
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/4 cup shallot, minced

  • Add 1 cup cubed mango, broth, wine, and curry powder. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer, uncovered, 10 minutes.
  • Add coconut milk, salt, and pepper; cook 2 additional minutes.
  • Pour mango mixture into an electric blender, or process with a handheld blender. Blend until smooth. Pour mixture into a serving bowl. Stir in the remaining 1 cup of mango cubes. Serve mango mixture spooned over the chicken.
