Instructions
 

Keto Crispy Fried Chicken

  • Place the pork rinds, almond flour, parmesan, psyllium husk powder, and spices in a food processor or blender, and process until the mixture is finely crumbed. Put about one-third of the crumbs in a shallow dish, and reserve the rest to be added to the breading dish as needed.
  • Lightly beat the eggs in another shallow dish with a splash of water, then pat the chicken tenders dry with a paper towel.
  • Dredge the chicken in the egg wash, coat it in the crumb mixture, then place it on a plate while breading the remaining chicken.
  • Heat oil over medium heat. Oil should reach around 365 degrees.
  • Carefully place the breaded chicken into the hot oil, and fry for about 5 or 6 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked through. Fry in batches if necessary and place in a 250° oven to keep warm.

For the Dressing

  • Combine all the ingredients for the dressing in an airtight container whisk or shake until well combined.

For the Salad

  • Pan-fry the bacon and place it on a paper towel to rest.
  • Wash and chop the veggies for the salad.
  • Assemble your salad. Make it pretty! Pretty food tastes better!
  • Chop the bacon, and top your salad with bacon, crispy chicken, and homemade honey mustard.
