As we head into the warmer Summer weather all I want to eat are light colourful foods that are bursting with flavour - gone are the heavier Winter meals and in come stylish fruity dishes like my Coconut Chicken.

They say we eat with our eyes and if there is truth in that, this dish will please just about anyone.

The flavours and texture combinations are incredible, but one of the best parts is just how easy this is to make! I start with chicken strips, dipping them in egg, rolling them in flour and finally coating them in dried coconut before giving a light spray with oil and then in the oven to cook.

Now you can turn your attention to making the fruity Salsa - a simple case of chopping and mixing, and dressing it with sweet chilli sauce!

The end result is a wonderfully balanced group of flavours which will excite your taste buds with every bite.

Looks like a delicious recipe to cook and to eat afterwards. Mango is a personal favorite but over here in the Netherlands they are usually not so tasty I'm afraid. Have fun out there and good luck with future posts!

I thought the Netherlands was amazing for growing everthing!! Why aren't they good there? In England they only sell a sweet and fruity Mango and when it's ripe tastes just so good :-)
