Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 1/3 cup cooked crispy bacon
  • 1 tablespoon Ranch seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons green onions finely chopped
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar
  • 1 tablespoon coconut flour

Instructions
 

  • Combine the ground chicken, cooked bacon, Ranch seasoning, and green onions in a bowl. Once the mixture is combined, add the egg, shredded cheddar cheese, and coconut flour.
  • Using a small ice cream scoop or a 1/4 cup measuring cup, pat out the chicken fritters. Pat the fritters a little thinner than you think they need to, as they will puff a bit as they cook.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When the oil begins to shimmer, carefully add the fritters to the skillet. Ensure the fritters are not touching, and do not overcrowd the pan. Cook the fritters for 3-4 minutes on each side until the exterior is golden brown and the interior reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees with an instant-read thermometer.
  • When the fritters are cooked through, remove them from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any extra oil.
  • Serve immediately with the dipping sauce of your choice.
