How To Make Coconut Chicken

Expert Tips

Storing Leftover Coconut Chicken

Let the chicken fully cool down to room temperature. Place the chicken pieces in an airtight container and store in the fridge for 3-4 days.

Reheating

To reheat and retain crispiness, preheat the oven to 325°F. Let the chicken sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes as the oven preheats. Place the chicken on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Bake for about 7-10 minutes, or until heated through.

Freezing

Reheat: Preheat the oven to 375°F. Place the chicken on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until heated through.
