1/4 cup Shallots, finely chopd

Heat oil in a large saute pan. Brown the chicken on all sides, 3-4 minutes.

Transfer the chicken to a platter. Pour off all the fat. Melt the butter in the pan. Sautee the shallots, garlic and ginger until soft, but not brown, about 2 minutes. Return the chicken to the pan. Stir in the coconut milk, marmalade, salt and pepper. Simmer the chicken, uncovered, until almost cooked, 15-20 minutes. Stir in the fresh fruits and the cashews and cook the chicken through, about 5 minutes more. Correct the seasonings, adding salt and pepper to taste. If the sauce needs sweetness, add a little more orange marmalade. Transfer the chicken to a bowl or platter. Spoon the sauce and fruit over it. Sprinkle the toasted coconut on top. Serve at once.

Shake the pans as the nuts roast. To toast coconut, spread on baking sheet, place in 350 F. oven and brown, stirring frequently for 5-8 minutes.
