Fried Chicken Tenders

So one thing I miss a lot on this low carb diet is chicken tenders. I have discovered a recipe that definitely scratches the chicken tenders itch.

What you'll need:
Boneless skinless chicken tenders
Almonds
Egg
Olive oil

Recipe
- Grind 2 cups of almonds into dust
- Season chicken tenders to your liking. (I use salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic, and paprika
- Make an egg wash by beating 2 eggs with a splash of milk
- Dip seasoned chicken tenders in egg wash
- Then coat egg washed chicken tenders in almond dust
- Once fully coated add to frying pan with hot olive oil.
- Brown chicken tenders on both sides and transfer out of the oil onto a broiler pan
- Finish chicken tenders in a 400 degree oven until cooked throughout. (About 10 minutes)

I like to mix some Texas Pete with Ranch dressing as a dip for them. Serve with celery, cucumbers, or just top a salad with them.

Delicious.
