Coconut Chicken Fingers With Pina Colada Dipping Sauce Recipes

CRISPY COCONUT CHICKEN WITH PIñA COLADA DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Remove chicken from refrigerator 30 minutes prior to beginning the recipe to allow it to come closer to room temperature.
• Make the dipping sauce. Turn coconut milk can upside down and open the top. Pour off coconut water and discard or save for another recipe. What is left is the coconut cream that you will use for this recipe. Scoop out the coconut cream and blend it together with the pineapple and sea salt in a food processor, blender, or using a bowl and stick blender.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. You want about 1/2 inch of oil in the pan. I like to use my 15-inch cast iron skillet for this recipe.
• Bread the chicken while oil is heating up. Begin by whisking the 2 eggs in a bowl. Pour 1/4 cup of the coconut flour into another bowl. And in a third bowl, combine the shredded coconut, 2 Tbsp coconut flour, sea salt, pepper, and garlic powder and mix well. Dredge chicken strips, one by one, in coconut flour, then egg, then the shredded coconut mixture and set aside.
• Fry the chicken. When the oil reaches 370ºF (188ºC), begin frying the chicken strips by placing them gently into the oil, one by one. Make sure not to crowd the pan and work in batches. Monitor oil temperature and keep it around 325ºF (163ºC) during cooking (should still be on medium heat). Fry each piece for about 5-6 minutes per side or until golden brown on all sides (internal temperature of 165ºF (74ºC)).
• Remove to a wire rack. Remove chicken pieces to a wire rack and keep warm in oven if desired. The wire rack helps the oil drain and helps the chicken stay nice and crispy! Don't be tempted to drain them on paper towels or they may become soggy from the excess oil and moisture.
• Serve crispy coconut chicken with piña colada dipping sauce and enjoy!
