Chicken and waffles is a fun and hearty combination that makes for a fantastic weeknight dinner. In this low-carb version, tender chicken breasts are coated in a crunchy pork rind crust, while the waffles use almond flour and heavy cream, keeping the carb count at just 13.5 grams per serving. Perfect for meal prep or family gatherings, this dish supports a low-carb lifestyle without sacrificing taste.

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Put 1 cup of the almond flour in a bowl. Set aside.
Crack 1 egg into another bowl. Whisk the eggs and set aside.
Put pork rinds, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika in a third bowl and mix together.
Cut the chicken breasts into smaller pieces.
Working one piece at a time, dredge the chicken through the almond flour. Then, dip it into the egg and then into the pork rind mixture. Place on baking sheet. Repeat with all chicken pieces.
Bake chicken for 20 minutes until cooked all the way through.
For the waffles, preheat a waffle iron.
Mix together the remaining 2 cups almond flour, ½ cup heavy cream, remaining 3 eggs, erythritol, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and vanilla extract until no lumps remain.
Grease the waffle iron and pour 1 portion of batter in to cook.
Cook until done. Repeat until all of the batter has been used.
Plate the waffles topped with chicken and enjoy plain, with butter or with this lower carb maple syrup
