Primal Kitchen’s Keto Friendly Spicy Chicken Sandwich Just Joined The Spicy Chicken Sandwich Battle
The battle of crunchy friend chicken sandwiches hasn’t finished yet. Which one is your favorite, Chick-fil-A or Popeyes, or KFC? I guess there is no one that you can try if you are on a keto diet. But what you can do is to make a keto friendly chicken sandwich at home with Primal Kitchen’s Mayo with Avocado Oil and Buffalo Sauce.
This recipe’s spicy chicken sandwich is keto friendly, thanks to a keto bun, pork rind-coated chicken tenders, and a mix of our Keto Certified Buffalo Sauce and Mayo with Avocado Oil. It’s a keto version of a Nashville hot chicken sandwich, but one that can be made easily anytime at home. If you don’t have or don’t want to use keto-friendly bread, this savory, crunchy, sour, spicy sandwich can be made into a wrap—collards or romaine provide a sturdy enough leaf to contain the heft.
Ingredients:
- 2 1/2 ounces pork rinds (We used Epic brand)
- 1/3 cup melted butter or ghee
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into tenders
- 1 tsp. water
- 4 Tbsp. Primal Kitchen Mayo with Avocado Oil
- 1 cup Primal Kitchen Buffalo Sauce
- 4 Unbun Grain-Free Buns
- 4 large pieces of iceberg lettuce
- 16 small pickle slices
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400ºF.
- In a food processor, pulse pork rinds until they are the consistency of bread crumbs. You can also place pork rinds and parmesan into a plastic baggie, seal it, and pound it into small bits using a rolling pin.
- Pour crumbs into a tray or a large plate. In a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat, melt butter or ghee. When melted, pour butter into a tray or large plate.
- Coat chicken tenders in butter, and then coat in crumb mixture. Press as much coating onto each breast as possible. Bake chicken for 20 minutes, or until fully cooked (to be safe, insert a meat thermometer in the thickest part of the breast. The internal temperature should be 160º when fully cooked.).
- Dilute mayo with water; stir and set aside.
- Assemble the keto spicy chicken sandwiches. Split the buns apart. Tear each large piece of iceberg lettuce into 2 smaller pieces, and place 1 piece on top of each bun bottom. Layer 2 chicken tenders on top of each piece of lettuce, drizzle on some buffalo sauce, add 2 more chicken tenders on top, and drizzle with more buffalo sauce. Add 2 pickles then 1 more piece of lettuce. Spoon on mayo, another 2 pickles, then the tops of the buns to close the sandwich.

MARINARA SAUCE MADE WITH AVOCADO OIL - Sounds Healthy and Delicious
As you may know that my husband Ryan has been on Keto Diet for almost a whole year. You must be curious about the result, and just like other people – he loves it and it turns out great. He loses about 20 pounds, as well as feels more energetic and concentrated. Keto Diet is great, but when I ask him, what do you miss the most of the normal diet? He says without any hesitations – Pizza! I guess pizza is the food which is not only missed by Ryan, but also is missed by tons of people who are on diet. Especially my mother-in-law is Sicilian, how come could Ryan give up his family’s traditional food? No worries, pizza lovers. Let’s get great products that fit in your diet.
For the pizza crust, we choose the Superfood low net carbs pizza crust from Real Good Pizza Co., it might be a little bit pricy. But come on guys, you don’t want to save money on the things that you build your body with. For the sauce, let’s face with the truth. I recommend my favorite brand ever – Primal Kitchen’s Tomato Basil Marinara Sauce.
