Low Carb Fried Chicken Fingers

These fry up nice and crispy and taste like the real thing but with minimal carbs.

They're also just as good cold so they make great picnic food!

INGREDIENTS

1.5 lbs Boneless skinless chicken (I used chicken breasts which I sliced into strips)

1/4 cup Almond Meal

1/2 Cup Vital Wheat Gluten

2 Tablespoons Parmesan Cheese

1/2 teaspoon Onion Powder

Salt and Pepper to taste

1 egg

1 Tablespoon Water

Enough oil for frying.

Add additional seasonings if you like.

 Sometimes I add my Cajun seasoning (recipe HERE) to give them a little kick.

INSTRUCTIONS

In a shallow bowl or plate, mix together the Almond Meal, Vital Wheat Gluten, Parmesean Cheese and spices.

In a seperate bowl - wisk together the egg and water.

Dip chicken in the the egg wash and then dredge in the breading mixture.

Heat oil on medium high heat.

 Once the oil is preheated, cook chicken a few pieces at a time 3-5 minutes on each side or until done.

Drain on papertowels and serve hot or cold.

Enjoy!

Note: Entire recipe is approximately 9 net carbs.
