Instructions
- Crush the pork rinds in a food processor and pour them into a shallow bowl. Add the seasonings and mix well.
- In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs.
- Dip each piece of chicken in the egg mixture, and then coat it with the pork rind mixture. Toss and make sure the chicken pieces are well coated. You can repeat the process for a double coating.
