Almond Flour Chicken Fingers
Makes 8-12 Chicken Fingers and 1 cup Honey Mustard
Ingredients
honey mustard sauce:
1/2 cup avocado oil mayonnaise
(I like the Primal Kitchen brand)
1/4 cup dijon mustard
1/4 cup honey
chicken fingers:
1 lb organic chicken tenderloins
(or chicken breasts cut into strips)
1 1/2 cups almond flour
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp paprika
1 tsp himalayan salt
2 eggs
4 tbs avocado oil
Directions
- Whisk all honey mustard ingredients in a bowl. Set aside.
- In a shallow dish, combine the almond flour, salt, paprika, garlic powder and onion powder and mix well.
- In another shallow dish, whisk the egg. Heat a large non stick saute pan over medium low heat and add 2 tablespoons avocado oil.
- While the oil is heating up, dip one chicken tender into the egg then the almond flour mixture. Pat down the almond flour to ensure it covers all sides and shake off any excess flour.
- Carefully place the coated chicken into the hot oil (it should sizzle immediately, if it doesn’t, the oil isn’t hot enough yet and keep the heat low so the almond flour doesn't burn and the chicken cooks through).
- Cook the chicken for 4-5 minutes on each side. Transfer to a paper towel lined dish to drain excess oil. Repeat this process with the remaining chicken tenders, wiping out the pan with paper towel and adding 2 more tablespoons of avocado oil.
- Serve with the honey mustard sauce and enjoy!
