Recipe Steps

45 min
Step 1
Preheat an oven to 375 degrees. Prepare the breading by pulsing the pork rinds, parmesan, paprika, and parsley in a food processor until you have a fine crumb.Step 2
Spread the breading on a small plate. Additionally, whisk a whole egg in a small bowl.Step 3
Prep 2 chicken thighs by laying them flat on a cutting board and seasoning with the salt and pepper.Step 4
Dip each chicken thigh in the egg, let any excess drip off, then coat in the breading. Make sure the chicken thighs are completely covered in breading before laying on a sheet tray lined with parchment paper.Step 5
Bake the thighs for 30-35 minutes, no flipping, until the breading is crisp and darkened.Step 6
While the chicken is cooking, break the cauliflower up into florets. In a bowl, toss the florets with the salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, olive oil, and honey mustard until the florets are all covered.Step 7
Spread the cauliflower across a well seasoned sheet tray or a tray lined with parchment paper. Bake the tray for 20-22 minutes (it’s okay to join the chicken in the oven), tossing the tray about halfway through.Step 8
Serve a breaded chicken thigh with a fair portion of honey mustard cauliflower. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley at your discretion.

Great recipe. I made this for my entire family and they loved it. That is huge because my husband is a bean and tortillas eating man and he had not a clue he was eating "keto." He ate 2 helpings. I will definantly make this again. I was simple and fast. Perfect for easy dinner nights.
