Steps:
- Combine milk and vinegar in a bowl. Add tenderloins. Place in the refrigerator to soak for 1 to 2 hours.
- While chicken soaks, prepare egg coating by whisking together eggs, heavy cream, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
- Prepare dry coating by pulsing coconut in the bowl of a food processor until it resembles large bread crumbs. Add almond flour, all-purpose flour, sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, and chili powder. Pulse to combine.
- Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Remove chicken from milk mixture; discard mixture.
- Dip each chicken tender in the egg mixture, then in the coconut coating, pressing generous amounts into the meat.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Gently drop coated chicken into the hot oil and fry until golden and no longer pink in the centers, working in batches, about 6 minutes per side. Place fried pieces in the oven to keep warm between batches.

Steps:
- Combine flour, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Mix eggs and water together in a small bowl.
- Place some chicken strips in the flour mixture to coat, then gently shake to remove any excess flour. Coat strips in egg. Return to the flour mixture and coat again; repeat with egg mixture. Coat once more in the flour mixture, placing strips on a plate while you continue with remaining chicken.
- Let strips sit for 5 minutes to allow flour to set.
- Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C); oil is ready if you drop some water in and it sizzles.
- Working in batches if needed, place strips in the hot oil. Cook for 8 minutes. Turn over and continue to cook until golden brown, no longer pink in the centers, and juices run clear, about 8 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Place strips on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.

FRIED CHICKEN TENDERS
Nice and crispy and a tad spicy, the perfect appetizer. The trick to perfect fried chicken is to control the temperature of your oil. Too hot and the food burns before it's fully cooked, too cool and it won't get crispy and it will get very greasy. Use a deep-fry thermometer and a heavy pot so that when you add the food the temperature won't drop too drastically. Brining the chicken is the best way to make it juicy and flavorful, but I wouldn't recommend doing it overnight as that's too long. Two hours should do it.

Steps:
- Combine the water, kosher salt, and sugar in a container to form a brine. Add the chicken tenders and let this marinate in the fridge for 2 hours.
- Combine the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, seasoned salt, black pepper and cayenne pepper in a container and mix very well to combine.
- Mix the eggs and milk in another container.
- Preheat your oil to 350 degrees.
- Dredge the chicken tenders in the flour mixture and pat off excess.
- Dip the tenders in the egg mixture and drain excess.
- Dredge the chicken tenders in the flour a second time and set them on a plate. Put them in the fridge to dry out for about 20 minutes. This will help the coating stick to the chicken better.
- Once the oil is hot, fry the tenders in small batches for about 5 minutes and then drain on paper towels.
- Serve with your favorite dipping sauces!

CRISPY COCONUT CHICKEN WITH MANGO SALSA
Totally Tropical! I served this for our church at a Girls Night - Tropical Breeze event, which we held at a friend's house. We had the hot tub going and served this plus many other great dishes. Not your typical church lady luncheon! If you want, you can easily make this into a great appetizer. Cut the chicken into bite sized pieces before breading and serve with a bowl of salsa on the side. This works well with chicken thighs too, and those pieces are cheaper.
