Instructions
Follow these simple steps to create your Irresistible Sweet & Savory Asian Mango Glazed Chicken Twists:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare Chicken: Cut the chicken breasts into thin strips for easier twisting and marinating.
3. Make the Marinade: In a bowl, combine the mango puree, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, garlic powder, ginger powder, and black pepper. Mix well.
4. Marinate Chicken: Place the chicken strips in the marinade and let them soak for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
5. Prepare Puff Pastry: Roll out the thawed puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Cut the pastry into strips about 1 inch wide.
6. Wrap Chicken: Take a marinated chicken strip and wrap it into a twist using the puff pastry. Place the twists on the prepared baking sheet.
7. Egg Wash: Beat the egg and brush it over each twist to give them a golden color while baking.
8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and the chicken is cooked through.
9. Glaze the Twists: Once baked, drizzle any remaining mango glaze over the twists for an extra flavor boost.
10. Garnish: Sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped green onions on top for a beautiful finish.
