Ingredients

  • 3 thin boneless chicken breast cutlets
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 egg white, beaten until frothy
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut, finely ground, 1 1/4 ounces
  • 1/2 cup almond flour, 2 ounces
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1/4 cup oil, for frying

Directions

  1. Mix the coconut and almond flour in a shallow bowl. Cut each breast into 2 pieces; season with salt and pepper. Dip the chicken breastes in egg white, then in coconut to coat on both sides, pressing gently to coat them well. Sprinkle with a little additional salt, if desired. Chill an hour or so until just before cooking time to allow the coating to set up. Fry in hot oil in a skillet until golden brown and chicken is cooked through. Serve with a dipping sauce, if desired.

  2. Makes 3-4 servings

  3. Can be frozen
