Coconut Chicken Nuggets

Ingredients

½ cup tapioca flour
½ cup cassava flour
½ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
1 ½ teaspoons garlic powder
1 ½ teaspoons onion powder
2 teaspoons sea salt, plus more to taste after cooking
½ teaspoon ground black pepper, to taste
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried basil
½ teaspoon ground turmeric
1 ½ pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs
2 eggs
inch avocado oil, enough for ½ inch at the bottom of your pan

Instructions

1. In a large mixing bowl, add all of the ingredients except for the chicken, eggs, and oil. Set aside.

2. Beat eggs in another large bowl.

3. Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces and mix in a bowl with the beaten eggs.

4. Add the eggy chicken to the large mixing bowl with flour, and stir to completely coat the chicken in the flour mixture.

5. In a large saucepan on medium-high heat add about 1/2 of the oil. When the oil is hot and shimmering, add chicken in small batches.

6. Use tongs to turn the chicken pieces until all sides are brown. Remove chicken to a warm plate in the oven while you finish frying, adding more oil as needed.
