Crunchy Coconut Coated Chicken Dippers Recipes

COCONUT CRUSTED CHICKEN TENDERS

Steps:

• In a shallow bowl or plate whisk together the starch, salt, cayenne and paprika until well combined. In another small bowl whisk together the eggs. Add the shredded coconut to a third shallow bowl or plate.
• Streamline your coating by setting up the bowls so that they are in order: the starchy spice mixture firsts, eggs second, coconut third. Rip out a large piece of aluminium foil or baking paper and set aside to lay out your chicken pieces as you go.
• Take a chicken tender and dip it into the starchy spice mixture, make sure to dust coat all sides well. Shake off excess starch.
• Next dip the chicken tender in the the egg mixture until fully coated and shake off the excess egg.
• Finally, dip the chicken tender into the shredded coconut and press into the chicken to coat well. Transfer to the foil or baking paper and set aside as you repeat the process until all of your chicken pieces are coated. Make sure not to overcrowd your coated chicken pieces as you go.
• Warm your coconut oil in a large nonstick skillet or pan over a medium heat. When the oil is hot add the chicken tenders and gently fry on each side, about 5-6 minutes or until cooked through. Try not to flip too early or often and leave space in between each piece or your chicken won't crisp up. You will probably need to work in batches so your don't overcrowd your pan. Transfer the cooked chicken tenders to a plate or cooling rack. Repeat until all of your chicken is cooked. Serve immediately and enjoy.

BAKED CRISPY COCONUT CHICKEN TENDERS RECIPE

• Working with one chicken tender at a time, dredge in flour and then dip in egg, and then finally coat in the coconut Panko mixture. Press in with your fingers to make sure the entire thing is well coated.
• Place chicken tenders on a foil-lined baking sheet that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. I give mine a tiny drizzle of olive oil on top to help them crisp nicely.
• Bake in your 450 degree oven for about 20 minutes or until juices run clear. Try not to overcook them because chicken tenders go from perfect to overcooked really fast! If your tenders are on the small side, they could even be done in about 15 minutes so keep an eye on them. If they're big they can take more like 25. The coconut will be nice and golden and the Panko crisp, but light in color still.
• To make the dipping sauce, combine the preserves, rice wine vinegar, and red pepper flakes in a small bowl until blended.
