Ingredients:
- 1 lb chicken tenderloins
- 1 and 1/2 - 2 cups blanched almond flour - an estimate use more if not sure
- 1 tsp fine grain sea salt
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1 egg whisked
- 1/4 cup ghee or coconut oil for frying - you might need a bit more as you fry
Instructions:
- First, cut the chicken tenderloins into 1-2 inch bites sized pieces and set aside
- In a shallow dish, combine the almond flour, salt, smoked paprika, onion powder, and black pepper and mix well to combine the flavors
- In another shallow dish, whisk the egg. Heat a large cast iron pan over medium heat and add the coconut oil or ghee. Before adding the chicken, make sure the oil is hot enough by dropping a bit of almond flour in the pan to see if it sizzles.
