Coconut Fried Chicken

3 Tablespoons Coco Lopez
1 Tablespoon fresh lime juice
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 cup flour
1 cup shredded sweetened coconut
1/2 cup Panko breadcrumbs
4 (4 ounce) chicken breast cutlets



Combine the Coco Lopez, lime juice, curry powder, cayenne, salt and eggs in a mixing bowl and whisk well to combine thoroughly.

Place flour in a shallow dish. Combine coconut and panko in a separate shallow dish.

Working with 1 dry hand and one "wet" hand, dip a piece of chicken in the flour and shake off excess. Then dip in the egg mixture, and finally into the coconut/panko mixture, patting the breading on all sides. Place on a parchment lined sheetpan and repeat with remaining chicken.

Chicken may be fried immediately or covered and refrigerated for up to 24 hours at this point.

Cook chicken in deep fryer (set at 360 degrees) until the chicken is cooked through and the breading is golden. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Serves 4.

Thanks Kitchen Witch. Do I have to use the curry powder? If so what kind of curry powder? Donnale

I am not a big fan of curry powder - you can eliminate it - I do in many recipes. I hope this helps!
