Paleo Finger Lickin’ Fried Chicken
This isn’t traditionally the “healthiest” recipe on this site but it will satisfy your comfort food craving. If you still can’t wrap your stomach around the flash frying, try baking your chicken breasts at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes, broiling for the last 5 minutes to get that crisp!
