Ingredients
- 6 oz Pork Cracklings / Pork Rinds Crumbs (I recommend these pork cracklings - amazon link)
- 1 Pound Chicken Tenders
- 2 Eggs large
- pinch of Salt (you can also use smoked salt)
Instructions
- Blend the pork cracklings until they are powdery, or use pre-made pork rind crumbs. Place them in a medium bowl.
- Cut the chicken into even-sized strips.
- Beat the eggs in a small bowl until well combined.
- Dip each chicken strip first in the pork powder, then in the egg mixture, and finally in the pork powder again. Ensure they are very well coated with a thick, even layer.
- For baking: Place the coated chicken strips on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.For deep frying: Heat oil in a deep fryer or large, heavy-bottomed pot. Carefully lower the coated strips into the hot oil and fry for 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown and fully cooked. Drain on paper towels before serving.
