Coconut Macadamia Crusted Chicken Breasts image

dad...this one's for you! Simple, and virtually no sodium. If you use the organic unsweetened coconut and unsalted butter you'll really only have 26mg of sodium per chicken breast. (the nutrition facts listed is based on sweetened coconut and salted butter). The amount of 1/2 and 1/2 used has 24mg sodium, the amount of sesame seeds used has 1mg sodium, and the amount of flour used has 1mg sodium (per serving).

The chicken came out perfect! It was moist on the inside and crispy on the outside. The coconut macadamia crust was delicious, and it paired well with the pineapple dipping sauce.
