TOASTED COCONUT CHICKEN



TOASTED COCONUT CHICKEN image

Categories     Chicken     Fry     Quick & Easy     Dinner     Healthy

Yield 3 people

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 eggs
1 package Toasted Coconut Shrimp Dip Mix (Gourmet Creations)
1 cup Panko bread crumbs
1 pound chicken breasts
1 cup olive oil
1/4 cup milk

Steps:

  • Clean chicken breast and cut into long thin pieces. Set aside. Mix package of dip mix with 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs and set aside. Scramble eggs in a bowl and add 1/4 cup milk. Set aside. Add 1 cup olive oil to saute pan and let it get very hot. Take chicken strips one by one and soak in egg wash, then coat in Panko/dipmix bowl and place in the pan. Repeat until all chicken is used. Let cook until golden brown and then flip over. Serve with fresh veggies, potatoes or pasta. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • To achieve a crispy coating, ensure that the chicken is evenly coated in both the flour and egg mixtures, then pressed firmly into the coconut mixture.
  • For a golden-brown exterior, heat the oil to the correct temperature before adding the chicken. You can test the oil temperature by dropping a small piece of bread into it; if it sizzles immediately, the oil is ready.
  • Avoid overcrowding the pan when frying the chicken, as this will lower the oil temperature and result in soggy chicken.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked through before removing it from the oil. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
  • Serve the coconut chicken immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet and sour sauce or honey mustard.
