Ingredients

Chinese Chicken Poppers

  • 1 tablespoon honey

  • 3 eggs

  • 1 recipe grain-free bread crumbs (recipe below) or Rorie’s NEW coating crumbs

  • cooking spray

Grain-Free Bread Crumbs

  • 1 cup almond flour

  • 1/2 teaspoon granulated onion

  • 1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 tablespoon dried parsley

  • 1 teaspoon sweet paprika

  • 1/4 teaspoon turmeric

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Spicy Aioli

  • 3/4 cup homemade mayonnaise

  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder or 1 fresh garlic clove, minced

  • 1 to 1 and 1/2 tablespoons Frank’s hot sauce or sriracha (adjust to taste)

Directions

Prepare Bread Crumbs

1.

In a bowl, mix together all ingredients for grain-free bread crumbs. Set aside.

Marinate Chicken

1.

In a bowl, whisk together garlic, ginger, orange juice, lemon juice, coconut aminos, and honey.

2.

Transfer marinade to a zip-top bag and add chicken pieces. Marinate all day (preferably) or overnight.

Coat and Bake

1.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

2.

Prepare three shallow dishes. Transfer chicken directly from marinade to the first dish.

3.

In the second dish, beat the eggs.

4.

In the third dish, spread out the prepared bread crumbs.

5.

Working with one piece of chicken at a time, dip in the second dish and then coat in the third. (Refer to the video for right-hand/left-hand coating method.) Place on the prepared baking sheet.

6.

Spray chicken with cooking spray and bake 12 to 15 minutes. Serve with spicy aioli (below).

Prepare Spicy Aioli

1.

Combine all aioli ingredients and mix together until smooth. Store in an airtight container in the fridge.

Looks great!
However, what are coconut aminos? Can I leave them out? Substitute them?

I once contacted rorie. She said it’s a like soy sauce. I guess she uses it for the lower sodium and because it’s soy free
