In a large bowl, mix the soy sauce, lime juice, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt to create a marinade.
Add the chicken drumsticks to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight, to enhance flavor.
In a shallow dish, combine almond flour and coconut flour. Mix thoroughly and set aside.
In another bowl, beat the eggs to create an egg wash.
In a large frying pan, heat the coconut oil over medium heat until hot.
Remove the chicken drumsticks from the marinade, allowing excess liquid to drip off.
Dip each drumstick in the egg wash, ensuring it is fully coated.
Roll each drumstick in the flour mixture, pressing gently to ensure an even coating.
Carefully place the coated chicken drumsticks into the hot oil. Fry in batches if necessary to prevent overcrowding.
Cook each side for about 7-8 minutes, or until the coating is golden brown and the chicken is cooked through.
Remove the drumsticks from the oil and place them on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serve hot, with a side of your favorite low-carb dipping sauce or salad.
