Note: Wash hands with soap and water.
1. If needed, pound chicken breasts down until they are of uniform shape; cut each into strips; set aside.

5. In another medium bowl, whisk together eggs and coconut milk.
6. Coat each chicken strip in flour, shaking off any excess.
7. Dip each in egg mixture and let any excess drip off. Generously roll in the coconut mixture, shaking off any excess; place on prepared baking sheet.
