“Mac”

  • 2 eggs
  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Ghee or butter (for frying)

  • 1 cup milk or cream
  • 2 tsp yellow mustard (optional)
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice (optional)

Garnish (optional)

  • Chopped chives

Instructions

1. Make “Breadcrumbs”

  • Crush pork rinds into fine powder (blender works best)
  • Mix with grated cheese
  • Set aside

2. Make the “Mac”

  • Blend:
    • Eggs
    • Ground chicken
    • Salt
  • Blend until it becomes a smooth paste
  • Put mixture into a plastic/freezer bag
  • Cut a small hole in one corner (like piping bag)
  • Heat ghee in a pan
  • Squeeze small pieces into pan
  • Fry until golden brown (about 1–2 mins per side)
  • Transfer cooked pieces into a baking dish

3. Make Cheese Sauce

  • Heat milk/cream until it starts boiling
  • Add cheese slowly while stirring
  • Add:
    • Mustard (optional)
    • Lemon juice (optional)
    • Salt
  • Stir until smooth, then remove from heat

4. Assemble

  • Pour cheese sauce over the chicken “mac”
  • Sprinkle breadcrumb mixture on top

5. Bake

  • Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F)
  • Bake for 10 minutes

6. Broil (Important )

  • Turn oven to broil
  • Cook for 30–60 seconds until top is crispy
    Watch closely — it burns fast!

7. Serve

  • Let cool for 10–15 minutes
  • Add chives (optional)
  • Serve fresh and enjoy

Tips

  • Sauce may look watery before baking — that’s normal
  • For strict carnivore: skip mustard, lemon, and chives
  • You can use beef instead of chicken for stronger flavor
