Paleo Chicken (Turkey) Nuggets

Sawyer thought these were awesome, which means I thought they were awesome.  The coconut breading gives it a great little hint of sweetness.

Ingredients

• 1 lb. ground turkey
• 1 egg yolk
• 1 t onion powder
• 1/4 t garlic powder
• 1/4 c + 1/2 c almond flour
• 1/2 c dessicated coconut
• Salt and pepper

Process
Preheat oven to 350. Line a baking pan with parchment. In a bowl combine 1/4 c almond flour, 1/2 c dessicated coconut and some S&P. Mix it around with your hands. In a separate bowl, combine the ground turkey, 1/2 c almond flour, onion & garlic powders, egg yolk and some S&P. Mix it with your hands until everything has been incorporated.

Take about 2 tablespoons worth of the chicken mixture and roll into the shape of a ball. Drop it into the almond/coconut mixture and roll the chicken ball around with the fingers. Make sure it’s completely coated. Repeat with the rest of the chicken. Place on baking pan and bake until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.
