Intro

Carnivore Chicken Nuggets is another recipe I put together on this early 2023 health kick that I’m on.  I’ve been eating mostly steaks and ground beef, so this was a nice substitute.  Simple recipe here just a few ingredients and you could cook these in an oven and not an air fryer.  If you need a good pork rind try these PORQ.  These snacks are good and you don’t have to crush the pork rinds up.  I used some raw honey as my dipping sauce, but I think a zero-sugar BBQ sauce would be fine as well.  The nuggets save well and reheat just fine.  Give this one a go!

Ingredients

  • 1lb of Ground Chicken
  • 1 Cup of Crushed Pork Rind
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 1TBS of Seasoning (I use Cajun, but just salt & pepper would work)
  • Cooking spray (I use avocado spray)

Directions

  1. Take the Ground Chicken and season it with the seasoning.
  2. Form them into 8 Nuggets and then place them in the freezer for 10 minutes.
  3. While the nuggets are in the freezer crack the egg into a small bowl and beat it.
  4. In another bowl place the crushed pork rinds.
  5. Preheat the air fryer to 400 F.
  6. Now take the nuggets out of the freezer and dose each one in egg and then the pork rinds.
  7. Place each in the air fryer basket.
  8. Cook in the air fryer for 16 minutes, but halfway thru flip them over.
  9. Remove from the air fryer, plate, and dip in your favorite dipping sauce.
