Coconut Breaded Chicken! (Clean Recipe)

This recipe is DELICIOUS!  I took Oxygen Magazine's Breaded Chicken Strips (in the May 2011 issue) recipe and kind of tweaked it to my taste. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

2 defrosted chicken breasts

¾ cup of Steel cut oats (can use any kind of oats really just not the quick cook kind)

½ of unsweetened coconut

2 eggs

1 tbsp of turbinado sugar

1 tsp of salt

1 tsp of pepper

1 pinch of cayenne pepper (optional)

• You will want to cut your chicken breasts into strips.  You can make them as thin or as thick as you want them. 
• Crack eggs and put in a small bowl
• In a separate bowl combine all your dry ingredients (oats, coconut, sugar, salt, cayenne pepper, pepper).  The spices are really up to you depending on your taste. 
• Take each chicken strip and dip in the bowl with the eggs.  Make sure each strip is coated pretty well with the eggs.
• Then put each chicken strip in your dry ingredients mix and coat.
• Set on non stick cooking sheet.
• Cook in oven at 350 degrees for about 25 minutes, flipping over at the halfway point.
