Ingredients
For the Buffalo Chicken
- 1 ½ pounds chicken tenders cut into bite size pieces
- ½ cup almond flour
- ½ cup plain pork rinds
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- ¼ cup buffalo wing sauce
- 2 whole eggs beaten
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- Pinch of salt
- Keto friendly oil of your choice (for frying)
For the Salad
- 8 cups romaine lettuce chopped
- 8 sliced uncured bacon cooked and crumbled
- 1 cup English cucumber chopped
- ⅔ cup cherry tomatoes halved
- ½ cup Blue cheese crumbles
- ½ batch Blue cheese dressing
Instructions
To Make the Buffalo Chicken Tenders
- To make the breading, mix the pork rinds, parmesan cheese, smoked paprika, salt and the almond flour together in a food processor and grind it to a fine powder. Set up a breading station with your chicken, beaten eggs and breading mixture.
- Dip the chicken tenders in the egg, then in the breading and sauté in oil in a large nonstick skillet (I used light olive oil) for about 4-6 minutes on each side or until they reach an internal temperature of at least 165F.
- Allow to drain on paper towels, while you finish frying the remaining tenders.
- Add the wing sauce to a bowl and dip the cooked chicken tenders in the sauce to coat them. Slice the tenders and set aside while you prepare the salad.
To Assemble the Salad
- Add the lettuce to a bowl. Top with the crumbled bacon, blue cheese crumbles, cucumber, cherry tomatoes and the sliced buffalo chicken tenders.
- Add a healthy drizzle of the blue cheese dressing right before serving.
