1
Trim the fat from the chicken tenders and place them in a large bowl.
2
Pour the coconut milk over the tenders, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cover the bowl, refrigerate, and marinate for at least 30 minutes, up to 8 hours.
3
When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 400°F. Melt the coconut oil and spread evenly over a baking sheet.
4
Set out three shallow bowls. In the first bowl, mix together the flour, salt, pepper, and paprika. In the second bowl, lightly beat the egg. In the third bowl, combine the shredded coconut and Panko breadcrumbs.
5
Remove the chicken tenders from the coconut milk, letting excess coconut milk drip off. Discard the coconut milk.
6
Coat each tender in the flour mixture, then the egg, and finally the coconut-Panko mixture. Ensure each piece is thoroughly coated.
7
Place the coated tenders on the prepared baking sheet, and transfer to the oven. Cook for 15 minutes, then flip the tenders and cook for an additional 5-8 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
8
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the honey mustard dipping sauce by whisking together the mayonnaise, yellow mustard, lemon juice, honey, and honey BBQ sauce.
9
Serve the chicken tenders warm, alongside the honey mustard dipping sauce.
