Steps:
- In a medium pot, add 2 - 3 Inches of oil. Turn burner to medium and allow oil to get nice and hot. The perfect temperature should be 365*F
- In a bowl mix cornstarch, salt, pepper & cayenne pepper. Set aside.
- In a second bowl, add 3 eggs and lightly beat.
- In a third bowl add coconut flakes.
- Take chicken and douse in cornstarch mixture.
- Then dip into eggs and cover well.
- Then dip in coconut and set aside on a plate. Do this to all chicken.
- Once chicken is ready, check oil. Place the end of a wooden spoon in the oil. If bubbles form around the spoon the oil is ready. If bubbles do not form around the spoon then the oil is not hot enough.
- Once oil is hot enough, GENTLY add chicken one piece at a time to oil, ensuring chicken does not touch and stick together upon initial contact into oil.
- Cook chicken for approximately 4 minutes then flip and allow the other side to cook.
- Cook second side for an additional approximate 4 minutes.
- Gently remove golden chicken and set on a paper towel lined plate.
- Cook chicken in batches if all does not fit into pan.
- Once all chicken is cooked, serve with your favorite sauce.
- We enjoyed this plain, with honey, with an orange sauce and with sweet & sour sauce. Choose your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!

Steps:
- In a large bowl, mix together the coconut milk, lime juice, onion and chile. Add the chicken and stir to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours but ideally overnight to let the coconut milk mixture tenderize the chicken.
- About an hour before frying, remove the chicken from the refrigerator and let it sit out at room temperature to take the chill off.
- In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, add enough oil to come about halfway up the sides and heat to 365 degrees F.
- In large bowl, combine the flour, coconut, salt, garlic powder, thyme, five-spice powder, cayenne, allspice and nutmeg and stir until well combined.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade and lightly shake off the excess. Coat the chicken with the seasoned flour, shake off the excess, then set it on a baking sheet.
- Add a few pieces of chicken to the pot, being careful not to overcrowd. Fry, in batches if necessary, until golden brown and cooked through, about 20 minutes. Set aside on a wire-racked lined baking sheet.
- Arrange the chicken pieces on a platter with the cilantro and lime wedges.

Steps:
- For the chicken tenders: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place a wire rack on a sheet pan and spray with cooking spray.
- Create a 3-step breading process in 3 separate shallow bowls. Put the coconut flour in the first bowl, eggs and coconut milk in the second bowl, whisked to combine, and panko, coconut, salt and pepper in the last bowl, stirred to combine.
- Pat the chicken dry and add it to the coconut flour, shaking off any excess, then dip it in the egg mixture, making sure to coat the chicken entirely. Lastly, lay the chicken in the panko mixture, turning it over and pressing into the breading to coat evenly. Place on the wire rack. Spray the chicken with additional cooking spray. Bake until golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes. (See Cook's Note.)
- For the dipping sauce: Whisk together the chutney, yogurt and jalapeno in a medium bowl.
- To serve this as a salad, combine the iceberg, carrots, tomatoes and red cabbage together in a bowl. Whisk the apple cider vinegar into the mango dipping sauce to make a dressing. Lightly dress the salad with the mango dressing. Top with the coconut chicken and serve.

Steps:
- Combine milk and vinegar in a bowl. Add tenderloins. Place in the refrigerator to soak for 1 to 2 hours.
- While chicken soaks, prepare egg coating by whisking together eggs, heavy cream, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
- Prepare dry coating by pulsing coconut in the bowl of a food processor until it resembles large bread crumbs. Add almond flour, all-purpose flour, sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, and chili powder. Pulse to combine.
- Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Remove chicken from milk mixture; discard mixture.
- Dip each chicken tender in the egg mixture, then in the coconut coating, pressing generous amounts into the meat.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Gently drop coated chicken into the hot oil and fry until golden and no longer pink in the centers, working in batches, about 6 minutes per side. Place fried pieces in the oven to keep warm between batches.

- Prep breading: Combine ingredients for the dry coating in a large zip-loc bag. Combine ingredients for the egg coating in a large bowl. Combine ingredients for the coconut crust in a shallow baking dish.
- Prep: Preheat the oven to 410°Place a baking pan in the oven while it preheats, so the pan can get hot.
- Bread chicken: Place chicken pieces in the bag with the dry coating. Close the bag and shake it well until all chicken pieces are coated. Remove chicken from bag, shaking off any excess coating, and place in the bowl with the egg mix. Toss well until all chicken pieces are coated. Finally, coat chicken pieces one by one with coconut crust, pressing it onto the chicken so it stays on.
- Bake: Remove the pan from the oven and the butter on it. Place chicken on the pan - you may have to bake the chicken in two batches depending on the size of your pan and how thick your chicken pieces are. Do not overcrowd the pan or it will get soggy. Bake for 10 minutes, then carefully flip and bake for another 5-10 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. If you want, put it under the broiler for 2-3 minutes to crisp up further.
