Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken tenders
- 2 cups almond flour
- 0.5 cup coconut flour
- 0.25 cup arrowroot flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder (grain-free)
- 0.75 cup coconut milk
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 0.25 cup coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, arrowroot flour, and baking powder. Set aside.
In another bowl, mix together the coconut milk, 2 eggs, honey, and melted coconut oil until well combined.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined into a dough.
Divide the dough into 16 equal parts, forming small biscuit shapes, and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the biscuits for 15 minutes or until they are golden brown.
While the biscuits are baking, prepare the chicken tenders. Mix sea salt, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper in a small bowl, then season the chicken tenders evenly.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken tenders and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked and nicely browned.
Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly, then slice them in half.
Place each cooked chicken tender between two biscuit halves, creating a mini sandwich.
Serve warm and enjoy your Paleo Homemade Chicken Minis!
