Low Carb Chicken Nuggets

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

What a busy past month! I bought a place, had it renovated, was sent to London last minute for work, and then moved.
I’ve been living off of sliced turkey and cheese, but am finally up and cooking in my new kitchen.

Long time readers will probably have noticed I don’t post many chicken recipes. I’m not a fan of chicken in general, but after seeing this delicious looking low carb chicken nuggets over at Fat Cat Keto, I had to give it a try.

Low Carb Chicken Nuggets

Well, it was a learning experience using my new stove. Apparently there is an ‘ultra hot hot hot’ for ‘long pots’, and I burnt my oil and first batch of chicken. I tried both a fry and a bake version.

Baked on the left, fried on the right. Fried is crispier, of course.

I also got a new food processor! WOOO!!! I splurged and got the a fly stainless steel 11 cup Cuisinart. I used it tonight for the first time and was VERY happy. I’ll post a review in another update. But it was perfect timing to make these Low Carb Chicken Nuggets.

Serve with celery and blue cheese dressing! Serves 4.
