How To Make coconut chicken tenders

  • 1

  • 2
    Heat olive oil in large skillet, over medium/high heat. Working in batches (do not crowd the chicken or it will not get crispy), add 3-5 pieces of chicken at a time. Cook just until browned on each side (about 3-4 minutes per side). Place browned chicken tenders on baking sheet and finish cooking in preheated oven, about 8-10 minutes. **If you enjoyed this recipe, please visit me for more at http://www.foodyschmoodyblog.com
