Ingredients
  • For The Breading:
  • 2 cups of Pork Dust
  • 1 cup of Parmesan Cheese
  • 2 cups Pork Dust
  • ½ tsp Salt
  • ½ tsp Dried Thyme
  • ½ tsp Dried Basil
  • ½ tsp Dried Oregano
  • 1 T Celery Salt
  • 1 T Cracked Pepper
  • 2 T Paprika
  • 2 tsp Garlic Salt
  • 1 tsp Ground Ginger
  • 1 tsp Chili Powder
  • For The Egg Wash:
  • 3 Eggs
  • ½ cup Almond or Macadamia Nut Milk
  • For the Pre-Coating:
  • 1 cup Coconut Flour
  • For The Chicken:
  • 3 pounds of chicken breasts, sliced to half thickness.
  • 3 cups Marinara (homemade or no sugar added)
  • 2 cups Mozzarella cheese
Instructions
  1. Make the Pork Dust: Fill your blender (I have this one) to the brim with pork rinds.  I used 3 x 3.5 ounce plain bags of pork rinds.  Using a total of 10-11 ounces of pork rinds should give you about 2 cups of pork dust.  Blend until the pork rinds are crushed into breadcrumb-sized pieces.
  2. Combine the pork dust, spices, and parmesan in a shallow bowl or dish and set aside.
  3. In a second shallow dish, combine the eggs and almond milk, whisking to combine.  Then, pour the 1 cup Coconut Flour in a 3rd Shallow Dish.
  4. Begin by coating each piece of chicken breast in the plain coconut flour, then roll it in the egg wash, and end in the pork dust & seasonings.  Place each piece in your air fryer or regular fryer, and cook for approximately 40 minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit.  If using a different type of fryer, the cooking time/temperature may vary slightly.
  5. About 20 minutes into cooking, preheat your oven to 350.
  6. used this Air Fryer, and it worked great, but these air fryers are the newer versions that I've heard work MUCH better.  You can also fry this chicken in a traditional oil fryer.  No matter what method you use, always check the inner temperature of the chicken to make sure it hits 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  7. Place the fried chicken breasts in a 9x13 pan.  Cover with Marinara, then sprinkle the Mozzarella cheese on top. Place in the oven for 10 minutes, or until the cheese starts to bubble, then serve warm & enjoy!
