I am a Southern girl, so it probably comes at no surprise that I LOVE Fried Chicken. That said, I think the last time that I made traditional fried chicken was fourteen years ago on my birthday. It was raining that day, and I have vivid memories of my husband holding an umbrella over my Mom while she cooked it on the side burner to her grill. I can't remember precisely why, given the rain, we weren't cooking inside. Maybe because I hate how frying makes the house smell? I'd like to think I wouldn't have banished anyone to cook in the rain for something like that, but you never know. Today, I've got a recipe that I promise you will never need to cook outside. And guys....this one is going to blow you away. This Keto Air Fried Chicken Breast is... To...Die...For! It is rare that something surprises me as much as this dish did. My husband, who has a strong preference for dark meat was even blown away. And, it is super-simple to make! Tips & Tricks
