Ingredients
Method
- Whisk wet ingredients together (egg, cassava flour and milk) in a large bowl.
- Place all of your chicken into the bowl, ensuring it is all covered. Place the bowl in the fridge for 30 minutes to an hour.
- Heat a pan on the stove over medium heat with avocado oil for about five minutes or until warm.
- While the pan is heating, mix together cassava flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper in a large bowl and place next to the stove.
- Remove the chicken from the refrigerator and place the bowl next to the cassava flour mixture.
- Piece by piece, move chicken from the milk to the flour using a fork and coat each piece in the flour completely.
- Carefully transfer the chicken to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side. Tip: if the bottom of your pan is coated in excess flour after cooking a batch, clean out pan and start the oil heating step again to achieve clean, not burnt, chicken.
- Move the chicken to a drying rack and let cool so that the coating is less likely to fall off.
- Gently move your chicken to a bowl and drizzle sauce of choice over top. Very carefully, coat your chicken with the sauce. You can do this by hand or using a spatula. Either way, be careful not to remove the coating!
- Serve with dipping sauce of choice and enjoy!
Notes
When reheating leftovers, opt for popping them in your conventional toaster oven or air fryer instead of the microwave. You can also throw it in the oven for a few minutes if that’s what you have! This will make the outside breading crispy again and will keep your chicken from getting rubbery in the microwave. No one wants that.
