A delicious and healthier version of Chicken Tenders made with almond flour for a perfect crunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound chicken tenders
  • 1/2 cup blanched almond flour
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  2. Combine the almond flour and all the ingredients under the spice mix together.
  3. In a small bowl, beat the one egg.
  4. Add your now seasoned flour to a plate and place bowl and plate side by side.
  5. Dip the chicken tender in the egg and then place it in the plate.
  6. Pat the flour on the chicken tender evenly on both sides then place the tender on a baking rack.
  7. Repeat until all the tenders are done.
  8. Place in oven for 15 minutes then flip and bake for a remaining 10 minutes.
  9. Allow to cool a bit when you first remove them because almond flour is very fragile while piping hot.

Notes

For best results with an air fryer, preheat and use parchment paper if prone to sticking.
