Coconut Lime Chicken Pieces image

This was a throw-it-together recipe when I didn't know what to make one night that turned out great. And it was improved with the help of my some of my brilliant fellow Allrecipes Canadian Allstar sisters: Jan, Lindsay, Michele, Debbie, Vera. Thank you, ladies!

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
3 limes, zested and juiced
¼ cup honey, plus more for dipping
1 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
½ cup all-purpose flour

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used too many chili peppers. Other than that, it was a great recipe and the chicken was very tender and flavorful.

This recipe is a keeper! I've made it several times and it always turns out perfectly. The chicken is always tender and the sauce is always flavorful. I love that I can adjust the heat level by adding more or less chili peppers.
