I've been searching for a good coconut chicken recipe and just couldn't find one... so we combined a few last night to come up with our own concoction. We made chicken strips & nuggets from chicken breasts first (we pounded the breasts down first) and then went from there.
Goff-House Coconut Chicken Strips
2 chicken breasts - cut into strips (or nuggets)
2 C shredded coconut
1/4 C flour
1 C corn starch
1/2 tsp salt
1 Tb sugar
1/2 tsp coconut extract
2 C shredded coconut
1/4 C flour
1 C corn starch
1/2 tsp salt
1 Tb sugar
1/2 tsp coconut extract
2 eggs
*enough water to make a thick batter (about 1/2 C or more)
oil for frying pan
In battering bowl, beat eggs. Add coconut, flour, corn starch,
salt, sugar, coconut extract, and enough water to make a thick batter. Dredge chicken pieces in batter and place into frying pan with a thin layer of oil already hot and ready to cook. Cook on each side about 4 or 5 min or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels on plate. Serve hot with a sweet dipping side.
