Instructions

In a bowl, stir together almond flour, grated Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly mixed.

In another bowl, beat the eggs until smooth.

Coat each chicken tender in the egg wash, then press into the almond flour mixture so every side is fully covered.

Pour olive oil into a large skillet and heat over medium. Lay the tenders in the skillet and cook 3–4 minutes per side until golden and cooked all the way through.

Finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon right before serving and pair with your favorite keto dipping sauce.
