Ingredients
- 2 pieces chicken breasts
- 1 cup pickle juice
- 0.5 cup coconut milk
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.5 cup arrowroot powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons ghee
- 8 pieces small cassava tortillas
Directions
Step 1
Slice the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces that are approximately 1-inch square.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine the pickle juice and coconut milk. Add the chicken pieces and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes.
Step 3
While the chicken is marinating, in another bowl, mix together almond flour, arrowroot powder, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
Remove the chicken pieces from the marinade and dredge them in the flour mixture, making sure they are well-coated.
Step 5
Heat the ghee in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken pieces in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the skillet.
Step 6
Cook the chicken for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and fully cooked through, then remove and set on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess ghee.
Step 7
Warm the cassava tortillas in a clean skillet over low heat, just until they are soft and pliable.
Step 8
To assemble, place a piece of cooked chicken in the center of each cassava tortilla, folding it up to create a mini wrap.
Step 9
Serve the chicken minis warm, and enjoy the Whole30 compliance without compromising on flavor.
