Forget Kentucky Fried Chicken... it's all about the Keto Fried Chicken these days!
This is a quick, easy, and delicious chicken recipe. Instead of traditional flour, the secret to this low-carb fired chicken is the combination of Modern Mountain Lupin Flour and Oat Fiber. When paired together, they're a next-level low-carb combo.
This keto fried chicken recipe is crispy and crunchy on the outside and juicy and moist on the inside. Bake it in the oven or fry it on the stovetop, and can accommodate both thighs and drumsticks. They're perfectly seasoned and flour-free, so you can indulge without the carbs you find in your typical fried chicken!
