Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb chicken breast
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.5 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 2 egg
- 2 tbsp heavy cream
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 0.5 cup avocado oil
- 8 wooden skewers
Instructions
Start by soaking the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during cooking.
Cut the chicken breast into 1-inch cubes.
In a bowl, beat the eggs with heavy cream until well combined.
In another bowl, combine almond flour, grated parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Thread the chicken pieces onto the soaked skewers, ensuring even spacing.
Dip each skewer into the egg mixture, coating the chicken thoroughly.
Transfer to the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to cover the chicken in a crispy coating.
In a large skillet, heat avocado oil over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, place the skewers in the skillet, cooking for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until golden brown and the chicken is cooked through.
Remove the skewers from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Serve hot and enjoy your low-carb crispy fried chicken skewers with your choice of dipping sauce.
