Coconut Chicken Recipe

My Mom gave me this recipe and it sounded too good not to try.  Chicken and coconut are absolutely friends in my opinion.  This recipe turned out so yummy.  It was a little on the sweet side but a lot on the juicy and yummy side.  We served it with a little sriracha hot chili sauce.  It balanced the sweet really well with a good spicy kick.  My Mom served it with a little apricot jam mixed with sriracha and liked that combo.

You will need Salt & Pepper, Sweetened Condensed Milk, Corn Flakes, 2 Chicken Breasts, and Coconut.

Crush the Corn Flakes and mix together with the Coconut.

Using your meat club pound the Chicken to an even thickness.  I pound my meat in a bag to avoid creepy airborne meat bits going all over my kitchen.

Pour the Sweetened Condensed Milk in a good sized bowl.

Cut the Chicken into strips and season with a bit of Salt & Pepper.

You will want to set up a work station.  I placed the cutting board next to the bowl of Sweetened Condensed Milk, and the plate of Corn Flakes/ Coconut.  Then on the other side I set up a baking sheet covered with parchment. 

Dip the seasoned Chicken into the Sweetened Condensed Milk and roll around to cover completely.

Dip the Chicken strips into the Corn Flakes/ Coconut mixture and press while turning them to get them good and covered.

Place on the baking sheet and be sure to leave a little room in between them.

Look at those awesome Chickens.  Now bake at 350 degrees until the Chicken is cooked through about 40 minutes.

Everything will be crispy and tasty. 

Enjoy!
