[email protected]I found this recipe to be a bit bland. The coconut coating on the chicken was not very flavorful, and the chicken itself was a bit dry. The creamy Caribbean salsa was also not very flavorful.

[email protected]These coconut chicken tenders were a bit too sweet for my taste. The coconut coating was a bit overpowering, and the chicken was a bit dry. The creamy Caribbean salsa was good, but it couldn't save the chicken.
