COCONUT-ALMOND CHICKEN image

Categories     Chicken

Number Of Ingredients 5

-1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
-1/2 cup finely chopped almonds
-1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
-Cinnamon (and/or any other spice)
-Coconut milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°. 2. Mix together coconut, almonds, and cinnamon in a bowl. Pour coconut milk into a separate bowl. 3. Dip chicken breast in coconut milk and roll in coconut/almond/cinnamon mixture and place on pan. (I found it easiest to pour the mixture onto a flat surface, such as a plate, to do this step, but you can do it in the bowl too.) 4. Bake in oven for 20-25 minutes. Many people become bored while eating Paleo/Primal because they believe there's not a lot of food choices. However, combining Paleo/Primal foods to make things like "breading" can spice up your meals- modifying this recipe can also get you simply coconut chicken, almond chicken, or cinnamon-rubbed chicken. Change up the protein to shrimp or salmon, or change the almonds to walnuts or pecans. No matter how you decide to combine or substitute the ingredients, you'll find yourself with a meal that's 100% real and 100% delicious.
