  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup tapioca flour (60 grams)

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup hot sauce (we used Frank's), divided
  • 2 tablespoons grass-fed butter or ghee

Equipment

Method
 

  1. Heat oil in a heavy-bottom medium skillet over medium heat.
  2. Whisk together eggs, tapioca flour, salt, pepper and 1 teaspoon hot sauce in a medium bowl.
  3. Place chicken into batter and toss until coated.
  4. Once oil is hot, carefully place chicken into hot skillet.
  5. Fry on both sides until golden brown.
  6. Remove from skillet and place on plate lined with paper towels.
  7. Meanwhile, make buffalo sauce: heat remaining hot sauce and butter together in a skillet. Whisk together until fully combined.
  8. Add in chicken and toss until coated.
  9. For extra crispy chicken: transfer chicken to a lined baking sheet and broil for 2-3 minutes on each side, watching carefully not to burn.
  10. Serve immediately with vegetable crudités and your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

  • Tip: Splash a drop of water in the skillet, if it sizzles, it's hot and ready to go!
