1 egg
2 tablespoons milk
3/4 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into 3/4 inch pieces
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
oil, for deep-frying
1 teaspoon celery salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Directions:
1. In a blender or food processor, process coconut until finely chopped. Transfer to a bowl and set aside. In another bowl, combine egg and milk.
2. Toss chicken with flour; dip in egg mixture, then in coconut. Place in a single layer on a baking sheet. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
3. In an electric skillet or deep fryer, heat 2 inches of oil to 375°. Fry chicken, a few pieces at time, for 1-1 1/2 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
4. Drain on paper towels; place in a bowl. Sprinkle with celery salt, garlic powder and cumin; toss to coat. Serve warm.
