PDF

Ingredients

• 2 lbs chicken tenders

• 1 cup Otto's Naturals - Cassava Flour

• 4 eggs (or 1 cup olive oil)

Buffalo Seasoning

• 1 teaspoon garlic powder

• ½ teaspoon onion powder

• ¼ teaspoon paprika

• 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

• 1 teaspoon salt

• ½ teaspoon pepper

• 2 Tablespoons Buffalo Sauce (We suggest Noble Made by The New Primal!)

• Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

1.  Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

2.  Pat dry chicken tenders and season with salt and pepper.

3.  Whisk eggs and hot sauce in a large bowl.

4.  Add cassava flour and seasonings in another large bowl and mix together.

5.  One at a time, dredge the chicken tenders first in the egg mixture and then in the cassava flour mix. Place on parchment paper lined baking sheet and spray each one with a little cooking spray, which will help make them brown and crispy.

6. Place the tray on top shelf and bake for 8-10 min. Turn broiler on high and cook tenders for an additional 3 min.

7. Flip tenders and cook on 425 degrees for 2-4 min, flip and cook on broil for an additional 3 min. Remove from oven and let cool. If you like it saucy, toss in buffalo sauce, dip in ranch and enjoy!

**Note: Feel free to omit seasoning and/or hot sauce if you’re not one for spice.
