Crispy Coconut Almond Chicken Tenders
Chicken tenders are an actual staple in my house. I love breading the chicken in things with flavor especially something with lots of flavors. This recipe adds a sweet and nutty flavoring to the chicken. What could be better? Or if you are looking for an air fryer recipe, try these Air Fried version
Ingredients:
2 lbs Chicken Tenders (or 4 breasts cut into tenders pieces)
1/2 cup Almond Flour
1/2 cup coconut flakes
1/2 cup Panko (or breadcrumbs or choice)
2 eggs
Garlic Powder, Salt, and Pepper to taste
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 bake (or Air Fry on 400 for 10-15 minutes)
Line baking sheet with parchment paper
Trim any extra fat off the chicken
Combine panko, coconut, and almond flour together (best to pulse together in a food processor but not a have-to)
Crack eggs, add in garlic powder salt, and pepper- whisk together
Dip chicken in egg, dip into dry mixture, coat both sides
Lay each chicken (not touching) onto a baking sheet
Spray lightly with oil to make extra crispy (if desired)
