A regular piece of fried chicken can have about 20 g net carbs. This keto-friendly fried chicken only has 2 g net carbs. Master this breading technique and you can bread anything: chicken, fish, cauliflower, etc. Use non-GMO safflower oil for frying. Safflower oil is good because it can withstand high temperatures, unlike extra virgin olive oil and coconut oil.
