Cut the alligator meat or chicken breasts into pieces about 3 inches long by 1 inch wide (about 7 1/2 by 2 1/2 cm).  Place into a glass dish and cover with the marinade.  Marinate for 1 hour at room temperature, then refrigerate overnight.  Remove meat from refrigerate 1 hour before cooking.

Chop the macadamia nuts into the size of lentils.  Put the banana chips in a plastic bag, press the air out of the bag, and beat into coarse crumbs with a rolling pin or wooden mallet.  Mix the chopped nuts (as well as the fine powder from the chopping) with the crushed banana chips, bread crumbs, dessicated coconut and jungle jerk rub, and place into a flat dish.

Place flour in another flat dish, and the beaten eggs in a third dish.

Drain the alligator or chicken strips, dredge in the flour, making sure that the strips are well coated, then inmerse in the beaten egg, and finally coat with the macadamia, banana chip and bread crumb mixture.  Set aside on a plate.

Deep fry in medium hot oil (160 C) until golden brown, then place on absorbent paper to drain excess oil.  Serve hot with Tamarind Chipotle Sauce or Amazon Aioli.

Note: If the frying oil is too hot the breading will burn before the meat is cooked.
