  1. Mo REVIEW:

    My breading didn't stay on the chicken as I was cooking it. did anyone else have this problem? how do I fix it?

  2. wks REVIEW:

    I double the recipe and use the leftovers the next day or so, cold, over lettuce with chow mein noodles, mandarin orange segments and sunflower seeds. Yummy! Great diet recipe and so easy to prepare.

  3. Guest Foodie REVIEW:

    The chicken was tender but for me the sweet breading just didn't go with the chicken. I like coconut shrimp but I just didn't love this. I think I might use unsweetened coconut next time and add spice to the breading. I liked the texture a lot, it just was the sweet coconut flavor I didn't care for.
