This healthier version of my favourite bar food is great for the soul and the immune system!
Ingredients
Hot Garlic Honey Ingredients:
- 1 cup raw unpasteurized runny honey
- 1 head of garlic
- 1 fresh red chili
Pretzel Chicken Bite Ingredients:
- 2 organic chicken breasts
- 2 eggs, or 3 egg yolks
- 1 tbs garlic powder
- 1 cup grain free pretzels (regular is fine if you're okay with gluten / grains)
- flakey salt
Quick Pickle Ingredients:
- 2 mini cucumbers thinly sliced
- 1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
- 2 tsp pepper corns
- 1 tsp sweetener (monk fruit, maple syrup, cane sugar)
Instructions
Hot Garlic Honey
Sterilize a medium size canning jar and add the honey, garlic (peeled) and red chili (chopped), let sit for 3 - 5 days before serving, will keep for 1 month in a cool dry place.
Pretzel Chicken Bite Ingredients
Crush the pretzels in a food processor until you're left with very small pieces, mix the salt and the garlic powder in with the crushed pretzels. Cut the chicken breast into small bite-sized pieces and dip in egg, then dredge in pretzel coating. Spray chicken bites with avocado oil and cook in the air fryer for 20 minutes, flipping half way. Drizzle with hot honey and more flakey salt and serve with quick pickles for a nice tangy contrast.
Quick Pickles
Combine all the ingredients in a small bowl and let sit on the counter for 1 - 6 hours. Store any leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
