When we say popcorn… you say chicken…
POPCORN… CHICKEN!
Heck to the freaking yeah! We’ve been talking about this paleo popcorn chicken for so long. Because really, who doesn’t want bite sized pieces of crispy chicken in their belly? Yeah. We thought so. It’s totally #getinmabelly goodness.
Ever since we made Paleo Chicken Schnitzel, part of the Make Life Merry Challenge we haven’t been able to stop thinking or talking about POPCORN… CHICKEN!
The thought process was pretty simple: hmm… imagine if we could make paleo popcorn chicken? That would be epic-ly yum and probably everyone would really love to eat that. Because we really would love to eat that.
Yeah, we should make paleo popcorn chicken!
So… we DID!
Are we right in thinking you’d love paleo popcorn chicken just as much as us? We think yes! Yet ANOTHER super ridiculously quick, easy and delish recipe!
Serve it as part of a party platter… or even for dinner! Paleo popcorn chicken anytime of the day goes!
Always merrymaking,
Emma + Carla
