Keto Popcorn Chicken

Keto popcorn chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make snack that is perfect for those following a low-carb, high-fat diet. This recipe uses almond flour and a blend of herbs and spices to create a crispy coating for juicy chunks of chicken.

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • ONE cup almond flour
  • ONE tsp. garlic powder
  • 1 tsp. paprika
  • 1 tsp. dried thyme
  • 1 tsp. dried basil
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • TWO eggs
  • TWO tbsp. heavy cream
  • Avocado oil or coconut oil, for frying

Instructions:

  1. I took a shallow bowl and mixed together the black pepper, garlic powder, thyme, paprika, basil, salt, and almond flour.
  2. Then I took another shallow bowl and beat the heavy cream and together eggs.
  3. I dipped each chicken piece into the egg mixture, then coat in the almond flour mixture.
  4. Then I heated enough oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat to cover the bottom of the pan.
  5. I fried the chicken pieces working in batches for 3-4 minutes on each side or until they became golden brown and cooked through.
  6. You may drain the chicken on paper towels.
  7. Serve hot.
