Ingredients:
For the “Windmill” Bites:
1 cup almond flour
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
1 pound boneless chicken or tofu, cut into bite-sized pieces
For Frying:
Avocado oil or coconut oil for frying
For the “Dipping Wind” Sauce:
1/2 cup full-fat Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon chopped fresh dill
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- In a bowl, mix together almond flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. This will be your “windmill” coating mixture.
- Dip each piece of chicken or tofu into the almond flour mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Heat the avocado oil or coconut oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
- Carefully place the coated chicken or tofu pieces into the hot oil. Cook until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side. Make sure not to overcrowd the pan; you might need to fry in batches.
- While the “windmills” are frying, prepare the “Dipping Wind” sauce. In a small bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, chopped dill, salt, and pepper.
- Once the “windmills” are cooked and crispy, remove them from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
- Serve the “fried windmills” with the “Dipping Wind” sauce on the side.
