Keto KFC Fried Chicken:
Servings: 10
Ingredients:
1.5-2 Pounds Skin on chicken, cut into pieces
1 eggs
1/2 cup heavy cream
Plastic bag
1 1/2 cups almond flour
1 tablespoon tapioca flour
1 teaspoon of baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tbsp paprika
½ teaspoon xanthan gum
½ teaspoons garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
½ teaspoon white pepper
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
Avocado oil for frying
*Allow the chicken to dry for at least 30 minutes or up to 1 hour.
Directions:
1. Rinse the chicken pieces with cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Make sure your chicken is as dry as possible.
2. In a shallow bowl, beat the eggs with the milk, and stir. Soak the chicken in the milk mixture for 30 minutes in the fridge, this tenderizes the chicken.
3. Combine the flour and spices (if using) a large bowl . Add the chicken pieces, a few at a time, and shake to coat completely in the flour. Shake off any excess and set the chicken aside on a rack to dry.
4. Pour the oil into a deep skillet or deep fryer and heat it to 350 degrees F. Add chicken thighs and legs and cook for several minutes.
5. Add other chicken pieces being careful not to overcrowd skillet. Continue cooking, turning once, until chicken pieces are golden brown and cooked through. Drain on paper towels and serve warm or at room temperature.

@David Brown I’d add garlic & onion powder
Can you tell me how many grams per one cup??;;
@M A
Hmmm…I air fried and the almond flour coating does not crisp up, it tastes like you’re eating almond flour straight out of the bag.
Looks good; I’ll be trying this soon. FYI, you can get powdered buttermilk, which you can add to the heavy cream, to give it more of an authentic buttermilk fried chicken taste and juiciness. I got mine at the supermarket, much better than trying to use up buttermilk before it goes bad or paying a lot for a very small bottle of it.
I thought I saw comments for temperture of the oven and time needed to bake after frying, but I dont see it now. Any help?
If I air fry it, do I still fry it in oil to start off with?
Making this tomorrow, any helpful hints are appreciated!
Been keto for about a year and a half and Ive lost 93lbs (42lbs to go). The really great thing about it is Im hardly ever hungry or craving bad stuff. And my labs and vitals look perfect for a guy in his thirties, I’m sixty-two, lol!
I love that you list the ingredients. THANK YOU💕
This looks amazing! Mayra I think that MAYBE if the “breading” is put in the fridge for a while too so that it also gets cold, that might help get them even crispier. Like with tostones lol. When you put them in ice water before you fry them (and dry them off first of course) how they come out crispier. It might be the same effect with the breading. It looks just like the original kfc for real! Excellent job!
Mmmmm tostones! Anyone got a low cab version of that? 😭
@Eogeaux I wish!! That would be fantastic! Aside from cassava, tostones are the other starch I most miss. In the meantime, If you find one let me know! 😁🤓
That looks amazing! Would love to see an extra crispy version!
You keep posting my favourite foods omg 🤤. You are making my keto life easy i swear. Everything on one channel, straight to the point, easy to follow recipes and best of all the taste test at the end ,yum! I just made keto pizza for dinner tonight i will try this later in the week. Thank you🙂
Looks so delicious! I can’t wait to try this recipe!😊
Making this right now…I am sure it will be amazing. It is Myra’s recipe after all! HUGS GIRLY! can’t wait to try it tonight!
This looks like it would go perfectly with you cauliflower “mashed potatoes” recipe you posted around Thanksgiving, which I made and was delicious! Thank you for all of your amazing recipes!
I absolutely love that you list the entire list of ingredients & step by step instructions in addition to your physical step by step presentation. And, it’s KETO!!🤷🏽♀️ Your time in helping others towards eating healthy yet great, tasty entrees is certainly NOT in vain.💚 🤑💚 Thank you soooooo much!!🖐🏽😚🙋🏾♀️
@Riderhard absolutely ! This video is wrong. I’ve tried exactly the same recipe, and that’s absolutely not what she shows.
She bought KFC and that’s all folks !!! 😀
@Riderhard Yes, tapioca starch is a high carb item but the recipe literally has 1 tablespoon of it (7g carbs) divided by 10 servings. Not a significant amount of carbohydrates at all.
Thank you so much for this recipe! Will try it at the weekend, together with your coleslaw salad ♥
Super crispy version would be amazing, I love the crispy chicken from KFC. The crispier the better! 😀
Keto and crunch is a big topic for me 😀
Try using sour cream with a squeeze of lemon juice, instead of heavy cream. It will help to tenderize your chicken if you leave it for a couple hours and it will give it that tart flavor that buttermilk would have without the carbs.
Theres no carbs in cream
@A. Merico Actually, there are .4 grams of carbs in just one tablespoon. That can add up pretty quickly. It’s still low carb, but not no carb.
@night shade yes.
Will try this
There’s no carbs in heavy cream
Yes, the chicken literally taste like KFC original recipe! Yum so good , this will be a weekly meal for my fam for sure👍😋,My son is picky and he really liked it! He thought the cauli mash potatoes and gravy were the real deal! Please publish a cook book!
@Justice for All No, Someone said she should put all these recipes in a cookbook…
@Renee Bradley yes you can 😂😂😂
It “actually” tastes like …. NOT LITERALLY! I’m so sick of dumba** people misusing that word
I’m going to try the cauliflower mash potatoes. Great idea
I love love love the comment section soooo many great ideas.
Thank-you 😘
I tried this for my son and it was a hit. Thank you. We have a long road ahead of us but with recipes like this we’ll make it.
I made this for hubs who has been “keto” since January 4th. HE WAS IN HEAVEN!!! And if I hadn’t tried it myself, I wouldn’t have believed it tasted like KFC! So delicious…thanks for your many offerings to help my hubby get fit. He’s thirty pounds down and wants to lose 50 more 🙂 Your recipes are helping make it much easier for him.
Yeah Congratulations to ur husband losing the weight. Hope he continues to lose and u as well (if u need to lose too). This is Sooo easy to fix. Will fix this soon 💕 Debbie from Texas
Add intermittent fasting. The weight will fall off. Also HIIT exercise. There are a lot of great 4 and 5 minute hiit sessions on YouTube.
Best health wishes 😘
My 10 year old and I are making this from your video right now! She’s so excited to make dad a keto dinner! We’re just waiting for the oil to warm in the pan so I wanted to say thank you! Also, we had to spend $50 on the ingredients… We had the garlic powder only in the beginning 🙂
That is awesome! I hope you all enjoy!
Amazing!!! Cooked this tonight, 2 versions. One with chicken as you made it for my other half who doesn’t do keto and one for me substituting the chicken with Quorn fillets as I’m veggie. My other half said its exactly the same if not better than KFC as it tasted clean and healthy. I’ve never eaten KFC and loved it. The flavours are great! Other half has just wandered in the room again and is still talking about it, he said it was supreme and probably the best chicken I’ve ever cooked 😁. Thank you SOOOOO MUCH!!!! 😍
GIRL you did it again on this fried chicken recipe. I made as directed the spices are on POINT! But, I air FRIED! It took a couple of times but I finally got mine crispy and looks like yours! Oh it cooks best with organic thighs juicy and so flavorful! YUMMY! And… oh yes, I’m OBSESSED! We had cauliflower Mac and cheese, fresh green beans with red onions and bacon balsamic vinaigrette plus, a big arugula and parm side salad for my hubby! The STAR OF THE MEAL OF COURSE WAS YOUR CHIX! 😋😝👍🏻❤️
This looks amazing – will definitely try this. Do you think I could use psyllium husk (half tsp) in place of the xanthan gum? Love your channel & now subscribed ❤️
If you want to keep the almond flour from burning, you can use sous vide to cook the chicken at 145ºF (for dark meat, or 140º for white meat) and start with the “cooked” chicken. Then you can pull it out of the oil whenever you like the surface.
I worked at KFC in another life, and they way they made the extra crispy was by dunking it again after putting it in the breading, then breading it a second time.
Great qdvice!!
I can’t wait to try this but I do like the idea of a crunch version! Girl you just keep bringing it! Thank you so much!
