*Amounts will vary depending on size of your family. This recipe is based on 6 chicken tenders.

6 Boneless Skinless Chicken Tenders

About 1/4 Cup of Avocado Oil

2 Eggs

1/4 Cup of Full Fat Coconut Milk, or any milk you like

About 1 Cup of Grain Free or Gluten Free Bread Crumbs

1 1/2 teaspoons of Sea Salt

Several Grinds of Fresh Pepper

1 1/2 teaspoons of Garlic Powder

1/2 teaspoons each of Thyme & Oregano

1/2 teaspoon of Paprika

Pat the chicken tenders dry with paper towels and set aside. Whisk the egg and milk. Add the crumbs, salt, pepper, and herbs to a bowl and whisk together. Coat the chicken in the eggs and milk mixture then roll in bread crumb mixture. Transfer to a plate to rest. In a large skillet add the avocado oil and heat on medium to medium high. Add the chicken tenders and fry until browned on both sides and chicken is firm to the touch.

If you’d like to bake instead of fry: Line a baking pan with parchment and add the coated chicken tenders. Drizzle lightly with olive oil or avocado oil. Bake at 425 for about 15 minutes.
