Butter Fried Chicken Tenders
Frying chicken in butter is not something everyone does, but imagine the buttery taste
that infuses the chicken. Moreover, the butter makes the chicken tenderer and more
filling. Just one thing you need to be careful with when frying – the butter has a lower
burning temperature so you need to add coconut oil to prevent that from happening.

Time: 25 minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients:
1 pound chicken tenders
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup coconut flour
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup butter
2 tablespoons coconut oil

Directions:
1. Mix the coconut flour, thyme, cayenne pepper and salt in a bowl.
2. Heat the butter and coconut oil in a frying pan.
3. Dip the chicken tenders in beaten eggs then roll them through the flour mixture.
4. Drop the chicken tenders in the hot butter and fry on each side for a few minutes
until golden brown and crusty.
5. Serve the chicken tenders warm.
