Paleo Chicken Tenders
Monday, February 6, 2012 at 9:42AM Growing up I ate chicken tenders as often as I could. If we went out to a restaurant for lunch or dinner (which was often) it was guaranteed that I would order chicken tenders. It wasn't even necessary to look at a menu. I didn't give up ordering these delicious pieces of breaded chicken at restaurants until my early twenties. And now that I've discovered a paleo friendly version I don't have to give them up at all!
Ingredients:
1-2 lbs Boneless, skinless chicken tenders
2 Cups Almond Flour
1/2 Cup Coconut Flour
1/3 Cup Unsweetened Coconut Flakes
3 Eggs
1/2 Tbsp Garlic Power
1/2 Tbsp Paprika
1/2 Tbsp Cayenne Pepper
Dash, Salt
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400F
2. You'll need 3 bowls (1 for eggs, 1 for 1 cup of almond flour, and 1 for remaining ingredients)
3. Bowl 1: Mix the egss
4. Bowl 2: Combine 1 cup almond flour and 1/2 cup coconut flour
5. Bowl 3: Combine remaining almond flour, coconut flakes and seasonings
6. Take chicken tender and coat in bowl with almond and coconut flour, shake off and dip in egg mixture,once the chicekn tender is coated in the egg, dip in bowl 3 until coated and place on baking sheet. Continue to do this with all the tenders
7. Bake in oven for 15-20 minutes, turning over the tenders about 10 minutes in
8. Andrew and I both love these a bit crispy, so once they are golden brown I leave them in the oven on broil for about 2-3 minutes
