eggs2sriracha sauce1 tablespoon
2
In a medium, shallow dish combine the coconut, panko, salt, pepper, and cayenne.
3
Dip the chicken strips in the egg mixture to coat, and then into the coconut mixture, coating completely. Transfer the chicken strips onto a plate and repeat the process with all the strips.
4
Turn the oven on to the lowest (or warm) setting, this is usually 160°F. Line a large baking sheet with paper towels and set aside.
5
In 10- inch frying pan fill the pan 1/3- inch deep with vegetable oil. Heat the oil over medium heat until it reaches a temperature of 375°, or until small bubbles form when the back of a wooden spoon is placed in the oil. In batches place the chicken in the pan, careful not to crowd the pan. Fry ⏱️ 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
6
When the chicken is done, transfer to the paper towel-lined baking sheet and place in the oven to stay warm. Repeat with all the chicken.
7
Serve warm with dipping sauce, if desired.
