Directions
Step 1
In a large bowl, mix the soy sauce, lime juice, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt to create a marinade.
Step 2
Add the chicken drumsticks to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight, to enhance flavor.
Step 3
In a shallow dish, combine almond flour and coconut flour. Mix thoroughly and set aside.
Step 4
In another bowl, beat the eggs to create an egg wash.
Step 5
In a large frying pan, heat the coconut oil over medium heat until hot.
Step 6
Remove the chicken drumsticks from the marinade, allowing excess liquid to drip off.
Step 7
Dip each drumstick in the egg wash, ensuring it is fully coated.
Step 8
Roll each drumstick in the flour mixture, pressing gently to ensure an even coating.
Step 9
Carefully place the coated chicken drumsticks into the hot oil. Fry in batches if necessary to prevent overcrowding.
Step 10
Cook each side for about 7-8 minutes, or until the coating is golden brown and the chicken is cooked through.
Step 11
Remove the drumsticks from the oil and place them on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Step 12
Serve hot, with a side of your favorite low-carb dipping sauce or salad.
