Ingredients

    3 boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 2 inch pices

    1/2 cup unsweetened Coconut Flakes

    1/2 cup Panko bread Crumbs

    3 Tablespoons Coconut Flour (Whole Wheat Flour will work too)

    2 Egg Whites

    3 Tablespoons Low Fat Milk

    1 dash Salt

Directions

Preheat oven to 425 & spray baking sheet with non stick spray

- On a small plate combine salt, & flour

- Combine & whisk egg whites & milk in a small bowl

- Combine Panko & Coconut on a second plate

- Working one piece of chicken at a time, coat the chicken in flour (shake off any excess), then dip it in the egg white mixture, then coat it in the coconut/Panko mixture.

- When all the chicken pieces are coated and placed on your baking sheet, give the chicken a light mist with your non-stick cooking spray.

- Bake chicken for 8 minutes, than flip the chicken pieces over (remember chicken will be HOT) bake an additional 6-8 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink on the inside.

- Let cool & serve with your favorite dipping sauce. My kids & I personally like mustard and or Ranch dressing
