glimmer Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 I used to coat chunks of chicken breast in egg and almond meal and fry those in coconut oil. Not sure if that is ok or not? Maybe just coat them in egg a coconut and try it o it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainninjapeters Posted January 5, 2013 Author Share Posted January 5, 2013 I think we're going to try it. Chicken, coconut, egg and some chili powder. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny M Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 I do! I can't remember where I found this but these are awesome. Do not eat these every night...there's a bit of almond flour here and it's borderline SWYPO but this recipe is great. http://eatingforidiots.tumblr.com/post/20389210194/chicken-nuggets-i-am-on-a-never-ending-quest-for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michaela Elmore Cogswell Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 standard coating rules should apply: dip in flour of your choice, egg wash (add a little water to a beat egg) and then into seasoned flour (add a good amount of your favorite spices and salt and pepper). Fry until golden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captainninjapeters Posted January 5, 2013 Author Share Posted January 5, 2013 You guys are awesome! Thanks! Also, I had to google SWYPO.... did a spit take while drinking my tea this morning. I'll let you know what we come up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Herman Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I'm a little late to the game but I use this recipe from multiply delicious. She has some good ones. -- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a bowl combine ¼ cup almond flour, ½ cup coconut and salt & pepper. Mix to combine. In a separate bowl, combine 1 lb. ground chicken, ½ cup almond flour, onion powder, garlic powder, egg yolk and salt & pepper. Mix well until everything is incorporated. In a sauté pan, melt coconut oil on medium heat. Take about 2 tablespoons worth of the chicken mixture and roll into a ball and then coat with the coconut and almond mixture. Repeat with the remaining chicken. You should make about 15 to 18 chicken nugget/balls. In small batches place nuggets into heated coconut oil and cook on each side for about 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer balls to a parchment lined bake pan and place in oven for 4 to 5 minutes to allow the chicken to cook through. Repeat with the remaining chicken nuggets.

melody Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I'm not a big fan of chicken but I tired this recipe tonight and it was pretty good. The mango slaw went along nicely: http://aspoonfuloffamily.wordpress.com/2012/12/06/day-12-coconut-chicken-and-mango-slaw/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanessarose Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 all sound very good! thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainninjapeters Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 This may seem anti-climatic but... I decided to avoid the almond flour and make Bora Bora Fireballs (Well Fed) instead. I used ground chicken instead of pork. They are DELIGHTFUL! I haven't had a "real" chicken nugget in years (Celiac disease) so this was a really special treat for me. Thanks for all of your help guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
