Coconut Lime Chicken Pieces

Ingredients

• 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
• 3 limes, zested and juiced
• 1/4 cup honey, plus more for dipping
• 1 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup olive oil, or as needed

Directions

Slice chicken breasts in half horizontally, then cut into thin strips. Place chicken strips in a bowl; stir in lime juice to marinate at least 1 hour and up to 2 hours.

Place 1/4 cup honey into a bowl; whisk coconut and flour together in another bowl. Dip chicken strips into honey to coat; roll chicken through flour mixture to coat. Discard excess honey and coconut mixture.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; fry chicken pieces until browned, crisp, no longer pink at the center, and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should reads at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Sprinkle with lime zest.
