This keto fried chicken recipe is here to show you that the best fried chicken doesn’t come in a bucket, a frozen container, or from a restaurant chain — it comes from your kitchen.
All you need is a handful of low carb foods and the right technique to achieve that moist, crunchy, dippable keto fried chicken we all love and crave!
In my house, this low carb recipes quickly become a family favorite, as it’s easy to meal prep and adjust to whatever low carb side dishes you serve it with. Trust me, once you try this keto fried chicken, you’ll quickly wonder why you wasted a carb on the other stuff!
So turn on that oven and let’s make some keto fried chicken!
Craving fried chickien? Here’s an easy and simple recipe for making it at home! Same great crunch and flavor, minus most of the carbs. Each serving (3 fried chicken pieces) has only 2.5g net carbs!
Boneless and skinless chicken thighs are cut into small pieces and “breaded” in a mixture of almond flour, finely grated parmesan cheese, and seasonings. Then they’re dipped in an egg wash and breaded again.
After that, they go straight into the hot oil, deep frying for about 5 minutes until deep brown and cooked through. The end result is fried chicken that’s crunchy and flavorful on the outside, with juicy and tender meat on the inside. Yum!
If you’re not a fan of deep frying, you might be interested in making this chicken parmesan recipe, which uses breast meat shallowly fried on a pan, not deep fried.
