Adult and Children Approved - Crispy Coconut Chicken Tenders

Monday, March 27, 2017



I LOVE Chicken! Having just regular chicken gets boring so I have been playing around with a few different recipes and putting my own twist on them to make them #kidapproved for my household of 5.

These were a huge hit! So much so that the kids had seconds!! I love when they are all over the good food :)

If you try this out let me know what you think and if your kids love it as much as mine. Stay tuned this week for the recipe for our slow cooker teriyaki chicken! It was AMAZING!!

Ingredients:
2 or 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/4 cup coconut flour
2 eggs 
1 cup unsweetened coconut 
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp paprika
Pinch of pink Himalayan sea salt
Pinch of black pepper

Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 400° F.
2. Slice chicken breast into about 1/2 inch by 2 inch pieces.
3. Use 3 bowls: 1. with coconut flour; 1 with 2 eggs beaten; 1 with coconut flakes, garlic powder, paprika, Himalayan sea salt, and black pepper (stir together with fork). 
4. Grab a baking sheet, line it with tinfoil and top with wire rack.
5. Dip both sides of each cut up piece of chicken into:
             --> 1st the bowl with coconut flour; 
             --> 2nd into the beaten eggs; and 
             --> 3rd into the coconut flake mixture. Place onto the wire rack.
6. Bake chicken for 10 minutes, flip tenders and bake another 10 minutes until cooked. For extra crispness broil chicken for 2-4 minutes


Slow Cooker Chicken Cacciatore

Happy October All!!

October is probably my FAVORITE month of the year in Canada! I love the fall colours, the weather is not too hot and not too cold and of course it ends with Halloween! I know Halloween is not a holiday but I still love it :) I love seeing all the little ones dressed in their costumes and I of course love that as a Mom and adult I can dress up as well and have some fun with my babies!

With the cooling weather of fall I like to do some slow cooker meals. It is easy and makes the house smell amazing throughout the day!

One of my all time favorite slow cooker meals is Chicken Cacciatore:


Ingredients:

1/4 cup Italian dressing or whichever dressing you like, I have used balsamic vinaigrette or sundried tomato oregano
2 or 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2 lb. fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 large onion, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup each red and green pepper strips
1 clove garlic, minced
1 can crushed tomatoes
4 cups cooked rice (whichever kind you prefer)

Directions:

Heat dressing in pan on medium heat. Add chicken to pan and cook about 3 minutes on each side or until browned. Put mushrooms, onions, peppers, garlic and chicken into slow cooker. Empty can of crushed tomatoes over it all and cover with lid. Cook on High for 5 hours.


I use a fork and shred the chicken up in the slow cooker when it's almost finished. Serve chicken over rice. Amazing!
