Ingredients
- 1 pound Chicken Breast (cut into thin strips)
- 2 Eggs (beaten)
- 3.5 oz Pork Rinds (use these pork rinds- amazon link)
- 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt
- Optional: 3/4 teaspoon Paprika , 1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder, 1/2 teaspoon Onion Powder (omit for strict carnivore)
Instructions
- Start by preheating the air fryer to 400°F (or preheat the oven to 425°F if using the oven method).
- In a shallow dish, mix the crushed pork rinds with the seasonings. In another dish, add the beaten eggs.
- Take each chicken strip and coat it in the egg. Then dip it in the pork rind mixture, making sure it is well coated.
- Air Fryer Method:Spray the air fryer basket with cooking oil and place the chicken strips in a single layer (air fry in batches if needed). Air fry for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through.Oven Method:Place a wire rack on a baking sheet and spray the rack with cooking oil. Arrange the coated chicken strips on the wire rack in a single layer.Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crispy. Flip the chicken strips halfway through cooking for even browning.
- After removing the chicken strips from the oven or air fryer, let them cool for 5 minutes before serving. This will allow the coating to set.
