Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breast fillets
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.25 cup Coconut milk
- 0.5 cup Coconut oil
Instructions
Pat the chicken fillets dry with paper towels and set aside.
In a shallow dish, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure even distribution of spices.
In another shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and coconut milk until well combined.
Dip each chicken fillet into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated, then dredge it in the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere the coating to both sides.
Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Ensure there is enough oil to fry, but not so much that it submerges the fillets.
Once the oil is hot but not smoking, carefully add the chicken fillets to the skillet. Do not overcrowd; cook in batches if necessary.
Fry the chicken fillets for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the outside is golden brown and crispy, and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
Transfer the cooked fillets to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Serve hot with a side of Whole30-compliant vegetables or a salad.
