Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces chicken breasts
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.25 cup coconut flour
- 1 piece large egg
- 0.25 cup coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips, resembling fries.
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the egg and coconut milk until well combined.
In another shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Dip each chicken strip into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat the strip in the flour mixture, pressing lightly to adhere the coating.
Place the coated chicken strips on the prepared baking sheet.
Melt the coconut oil and drizzle it over the chicken strips for added crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, flipping halfway, until the chicken fries are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
