Ingredients:
- 1 pound Ground Chicken
- 1 cup Pork Rinds, ground (for coating)
- 2 eggs
- 3 tablespoons Equip Prime Beef Protein Powder (for dredging) – Use code: CARNIVOREJT for 15% off!
- 2 teaspoons Cayenne Powder (adjust to taste)
- 2 teaspoons Salt (adjust to taste)
- Wagyu Tallow (or other animal-based fat) for frying
Instructions:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, cayenne powder, and salt. Mix the ingredients well until they are thoroughly combined.
- In a separate bowl, place the unflavored protein powder for dredging.
- In another bowl, beat the eggs until they are well mixed.
- Take small portions of the chicken mixture and form them into long, cylindrical fries. You can make them similar in size and shape to traditional French fries. Place them on a tray lined with parchment paper.
- Place the tray of chicken fries in the freezer for about 30 minutes. This helps them firm up and hold their shape when you fry them.
- Heat the Wagyu tallow or your preferred animal-based fat in a deep skillet or frying pan to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Remove the chicken fries from the freezer and dredge each one in the unflavored protein powder, ensuring they are coated evenly.
- After dredging in the protein powder, dip the chicken fries into the beaten eggs, making sure they are coated evenly.
- Roll the egg-coated chicken fries in the ground pork rinds to coat them generously. This will give them a crispy, golden crust.
- Carefully place the coated chicken fries into the hot oil, a few at a time, depending on the size of your pan. Fry them until they are crispy and golden brown, which should take about 5-7 minutes.
- Use a slotted spoon to remove the chicken fries from the hot oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
- Serve your delicious homemade chicken fries hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as a low-carb ranch dressing or aioli. Enjoy your carnivore-friendly, protein-packed snack!
These chicken fries are a tasty and satisfying option for those following a carnivore and animal-based diet. They provide plenty of protein and flavor while keeping the carbs to a minimum.
