Gluten Free Italian Chicken Tenders Recipes

GLUTEN-FREE CHICKEN TENDERS

Steps:

• Pound the chicken pieces thin using a meat pounder.
• Beat the eggs with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Place the egg mixture in a shallow bowl. Place half of the almond flour in another shallow bowl.
• Dip each chicken piece into the egg mixture, shaking the excess off, then dredge it in the almond flour, pressing to adhere until well-coated. It's a good idea to use one hand for dipping in the egg, and the second hand for dredging in the almond flour.
• After making 4 tenders, add the remaining almond flour to the bowl and prepare the remaining four chicken tenders.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, about 4 minutes.
• Place half the chicken tenders in the hot oil and fry for about 3 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through (their internal temperature should reach 165ºF). Place on paper towels to drain.
• Carefully wipe the skillet using paper towels, add the remaining oil, and cook the second batch. Serve immediately.
