  • 2 teaspoons Salt (adjust to taste)
  • Wagyu Tallow (or other animal-based fat) for frying

Instructions:

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, cayenne powder, and salt. Mix the ingredients well until they are thoroughly combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, place the unflavored protein powder for dredging.
  3. In another bowl, beat the eggs until they are well mixed.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.

  9. Roll the egg-coated chicken fries in the ground pork rinds to coat them generously. This will give them a crispy, golden crust.
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. 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!
