Most of you already know that with pork rinds I love to coat my chicken to get that delicious and crisp layer, but this time we’ve combined it with some almond meal, awesome spices, and flaxseed meal to really get the crunch.
Baking the keto chicken nuggets is the perfect way to do it to take the moisture out, you get a crisp outer layer and deliciously zesty and perfectly tender chicken on the inside.
