Paleo: Buffalo Chicken Bites and Creamy Avocado Dip




mmmmmmm.................................................


seriously people... this was way better than even i imagined it would be. This is one of those so good even people who dont eat healthy would love kind of meal!!

Everything came out so perfect the crust stayed on great it was crispy and tasty. I've had other peoples attempts at paleo "fried" chicken and i vividly recall it being tasteless, mushy and the breading fell right off. This recipe blew my non paleo chicken out of the water!

You will need:

CHICKEN
Chicken tenderloins, i used 6
almond meal/flour
salt 
pepper
garlic powder  
paprika
2 eggs

BUFFALO SAUCE
1 stick high quality butter, we use kerrigold irish butter
1/2 hot sauce
1 grated garlic clove

AVOCADO SAUCE
one avocado
half a handful of cilantro
half a lime
2 tbsp coconut oil


 On low heat melt your butter
 add your grated garlic and let sit hit for five minutes on low
 add your hot sauce, shake it up and set aside.



 Chop your chicken into one inch pieces
Scramble two eggs and pour into the chicken. set aside


combine all avocado sauce ingredients in the blender and blend until the nice and creamy
The heat from the blender blades will make the oil separate but you can put it in the fridge and then mix it and it wont be separated anymore.


dredge your chicken in the almond meal with your seasonings in it



in a well oiled shallow pan, heat the oil to medium heat and cook until brown and crispy


cool your chicken on a rack NOT a paper towel. To get the best crispy chicken or anything... place a towel under a cookie rack and put your chicken on the rack.


i served it with some sliced carrots, because i dont like raw celery :)


Enjoy!
