Chicken Nuggets
There is no need to give up the foods you love when you choose the
Low Carb Lifestyle. Most times you can make a few tweaks and changes to make a Carb Friendly recipe. That is exactly what i’ve been able to do with theses nuggets. They have wonderful flavor and crispy-crunch you’ll LOVE!
INGREDIENTS:
•1 lb Chicken
•1 cup Protein Powder unflavored
•1 Cup Lupin or Coconut Flour
•1/2 tsp Salt
•1/2 tsp Pepper
•1/2 tsp Garlic powder
•2 Eggs
•1+ Cup Avocado Oi
INSTRUCTIONS:
Cube your chicken in about 2 inch pieces.
In a dredging dish whisk two eggs. In another dish about the same size combine Protein Powder, Flour, salt, pepper and garlic.
In a heavy duty frying pan pour in Avocado Oil (the size of your pan will determine amount.) Heat oil over medium-high heat until you notice a shimmer.
Begin dredging the chicken pieces, first in the egg mixture then in the flour mixture. Once coated carefully place in the hot oil. Adjust your heat as you notice how your first batch is cooking. Many times you’ll want to turn your heat to medium to medium-low. Continue the process until you’ve cooked all your nuggets.
I typically serve with a dipping sauce made up of Olive Oil Mayo w/ siracha and a packet of natural sweetener.
