2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons granulated sugar

Yield: 4-6 servings
Method
Trim chicken breasts so the pieces will measure 4" long and about 2 1/2" wide. Sprinkle sugar and salt over chicken breast and place in a zip lock bag and marinate in refrigerator for 4 hours.
When chicken breasts are ready to be prepared, rinse lightly and drain. Place coconut, cornstarch, and flour in a bowl and mix well.
In separate bowl place beaten eggs and add water, blend well. Have oil hot and ready to fry chicken breast. Dip chicken breast in egg wash and then place chicken breast in coconut mixture, coated well. Carefully place chicken in hot oil and cook until lightly golden. Remove and place on a paper towel. When frying chicken do not crowd and keep a check on the oil so it does not burn.

1/3 cup honey mustard (French's)
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Mix mustard, mayonnaise and cayenne pepper together and blend well.
Place in a covered container and refrigerate until ready to use.
