This is my 2nd day on the 30 day paleo challenge and this was my first Paleo meal. AWESOME! I am now addicted to coconut chicken. This was just as easy as making shake-n-bake. I did bake it but will fry it up next time. 2 kids running around I didn’t want to be tied to the stove-top for too long so I put it in the oven for about 23 min. I had chicken breast tenders and prob could have done a min or 2 less. It smelled so good, like coconut shrimp and MmmMmmMmm was it good! Bob’s Almond Flour and bobs coconut! Love it!! It’s a keeper!

I made this recipe exactly as it is listed above and it was delicious. It was my first time cooking with coconut oil and it added a wonderful flavor to the chicken. The almond flour gives the chicken a crispy texture with a buttery-coconut flavor! My favorite paleo recipe hands down, try it!

I added more salt and some garlic powder. Yum!

I used the NuwaveOven to cook my chicken and my friend tried it and said.. “Damn Chef James!” (meat was still juicy and the coconut was light and crispy)

@GreekMuse – Try using any spices you like. Cayenne, chili pepper, curry, or a mix of any of them to give it that kick. Let us know how it goes and maybe we’ll edit the recipe. Any other suggestions from anyone?

I cut the chicken into strips for dipping and cooked 1/2 in coconut oil and baked the other 1/2 to see which was tastier. I also breaded it in almond meal instead of flour and both ways came out crispy and great without significant flavor difference, but needed a little spicing up, too bland. I made the peanut satay sauce to give it a little kick and although good, still not great. I would make these again cause I love coconut but need to figure out what’s “missing”.

So freaking good! I’ve never made fried chicken in my life, and this was fantastic! Hint: fry the leftover egg in the leftover coconut oil. Mmmm…

IF you bake these, make sure you don’t overbake them or they’ll really dry out. Husband was running late for dinner and instead of baking for 25 min, I cooked closer to 35. Almost inedible – although I made a paleo friendly cashew-butter dipping sauce which saved them.
