Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds chicken breast, cut into 12 strips
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup Frank's Buffalo Sauce
For the Keto Breading
- 3/4 cup almond flour
- 3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F
- Spray a large cookie sheet with cooking spray, or line with aluminum foil.
- In one shallow bowl combine the egg and mayonnaise, beat with a fork until it is completely combined. Set aside.
- In another shallow bowl combine the Keto Breading ingredients. Dip each sliced chicken tender into the egg mixture, then dredge in the breading. Make sure the tenders are completely coated.
- Once each tender is coated well, lay on the cooking sheet and brush with the melted butter.*
- Bake 15 minutes, then remove chicken from oven. Dunk tenders into the buffalo sauce, place back onto the baking sheet (flipped so that both sides get crispy).
- Bake an additional 5-10 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
Notes
*You may choose to double-dip the tenders in the egg mixture then the keto breading mixture if you want your tenders to be extra crispy.
