Servings: 4

Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

• 8 chicken drumsticks

• 1⁄4 cup coconut flour

• 1⁄2 tsp salt

• 1⁄4 tsp black pepper

• 2 large eggs

• 1 cup crushed pork rinds

• 1 tsp smoked paprika

• 1⁄2 tsp garlic powder

• 1⁄4 tsp dried thyme

Serving suggestions: salad greens, cauliflower mash, or steamed broccoli

Instructions:

1. You will need three bowls to prepare a ‘breading’ station. In the first bowl, mix coconut flour, salt, and pepper.

2. Beat the eggs in the second bowl.

3. In the third bowl, combine the pork rinds and seasoning.

4. Bread the chicken by dipping in flour mixture, then eggs, and lastly, dredge in the pork

   rind mixture.

5. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F. Place the drumsticks in a single layer in the greased air

   fryer basket.

6. Cook chicken in an air fryer for about 20 minutes or until fully cooked.

Tips:

• No worries if you don’t have an air fryer. Place a greased cookie rack inside a baking tray, and arrange chicken on top. Bake in a 400°F oven for about 25 minutes on each side until nice and crispy.
