Instructions
Marinate the chicken
In a bowl, whisk together the coconut cream, lemon juice, and seasonings for the marinade. Add the chicken and toss to coat. Let sit at room temperature for 1 hour.
Bread and fry the chicken
Turn your oven to 375. In a large bowl, whisk together the breading ingredients. Put a skillet or frying pan on medium/medium-low heat with 1/2in of avocado oil in the bottom. Bring to frying temp - about 400.
One at a time, remove the chicken thighs from the coconut milk. Let them drip or gently pat with a paper towel to reduce moisture content a little (but don't make them dry completely). Coat in the breading and fry for 3-4 minutes each side, until the breading is golden brown (chicken will not be cooked all the way). Fry in smaller batches so the pieces aren't touching otherwise it'll be a soggy mess.
Place the chicken on a baking sheet with a cooling rack on it so air can circulate all around the chicken. Once the chicken has all been fried, put in the oven and cook until done.
Prep and serve
Assemble the lettuce wraps by laying down a cup of lettuce, then the slaw/cabbage, pickles, onions, sliced chicken, and sauce.
