Fried chicken tenders are a beloved classic in many households, especially here in the Midwest where comfort food reigns supreme. This low-carb version allows you to enjoy that same crispy, golden goodness without the guilt. Perfect for family dinners or gatherings with friends, these tenders are sure to be a hit with both kids and adults alike. By using almond flour and Parmesan cheese, we keep the carbs low while still delivering that satisfying crunch everyone loves.
These crispy fried chicken tenders pair beautifully with a fresh green salad or some roasted vegetables for a balanced meal. If you're looking to keep things low-carb, consider serving them with a side of cauliflower mash or zucchini fries. For a more traditional approach, a side of coleslaw or some homemade pickles would add a nice tangy contrast to the savory tenders.
