Ingredients
1/2
cup
blanched almond flour
3/4
cup
tapioca flour
arrowroot would work as well
1
cup
full-fat unsweetened coconut milk
2
egg whites
1/2
cup
water
2
tsp
garlic powder
1
tsp
salt
1/2
tsp
chili powder
2-3

2-3
lbs
chicken tenderloins or breasts
cut into “nugget sized” chunks
Instructions
Heat the 2 cups palm shortening over medium heat in a saucepan.
Stir together the dry ingredients, then add in the remaining ingredients.
Add all the chicken into batter and stir to coat.
*Test the oil by dropping a small drop of batter in. If it floats to the top and sizzles, you’re good! If it sinks, wait a bit longer.
Using tongs, place a few at a time carefully into hot oil, making sure they don’t touch each other.
After 2-3 minutes, flip over and cook another 2-3 minutes.
Remove and place on plate covered with a paper towel.
Repeat until chicken is all done cooking.
You won’t be disappointed in these!
