Linda's Notes:

This is another good appetizer that we have enjoyed over the years. When my husband was in the military, we entertained a lot and this is one of the things that the young airmen loved to come to our house and eat. I hope you will enjoy it as well.

Directions

Heat oven to 400 degrees

Mix coconut, flour, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Cut chicken into one inch nuggets.

Dip nugget into beaten egg, then coat with the coconut mixture.

Place into a shallow baking pan and drizzle with melted butter. Bake for 25 minutes, turning once.

Mix the ingredients for the Pina Colada Dipping Sauce and serve with the chicken nuggets.

oh my Linda this sounds so good, I will have to give this a try. What is the pina colada mix?

It's found in the beer and wine section. It's the juice that you make pina coladas with but it doesn't have any liquor in it. I think it is coconut milk and pineapple juice. It comes in a bottle. I hope you will enjoy the recipe
