Chicken Tenders & Honey Mustard Sauce

Chicken Tenders & Honey Mustard Sauce

This recipe was made at the request of my girls. They haven’t had Chicken McYuck-its (as they refer to them) in two years. My girls are great sports for trying all of my crazy creations, but every now and then, they just want something simple.

2 chicken breasts, free-range
3 eggs
3/4 cup almond meal
1/2 cup coconut flour
1T fresh thyme, chopped
1/2 tsp sea salt
3T coconut oil

SAUCE:
1/3 cup mustard (any preferred variety)
1/3 cup raw honey
1T apple cider vinegar

Put the chicken breasts between two pieces of parchment paper. Use the flat side of a mallet and smash chicken until they are level in height about 1/2 inch thick. Cut chicken into approximately one-inch pieces. Set aside.

In one bowl, whisk the eggs. In another bowl, combine almond meal, coconut flour, sea salt and fresh thyme. Set these bowls aside.

In skillet, heat half of the coconut oil on medium. Dredge the chicken pieces in the egg and then in the flour mixture. Place in skillet. Do this with half of the chicken and cook 2-3 minutes per side, depending on the size of your chicken pieces. Transfer chicken to a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat this cooking process with the second half of the chicken.

To make the sauce, combine mustard, honey and apple cider vinegar.

Plate food. Enjoy!
