Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large chicken breast
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 tablespoon coconut flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
Instructions
Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips, approximately 1/2 inch wide, to resemble fries.
In a shallow bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth.
In another shallow bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Dip each chicken strip first into the egg mixture, making sure it is well coated.
Transfer the chicken strip to the flour mixture, turning to coat evenly on all sides.
Place the coated chicken strips on a plate and repeat the process with the remaining strips.
Heat coconut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Once hot, add chicken strips in batches, careful not to overcrowd the skillet.
Cook the chicken strips for approximately 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Transfer cooked chicken fries to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve immediately, and enjoy your Whole30 Crispy Chicken Fries.
