Pat the chicken dry with a paper towel and set aside. Place a paper towel lined plate next to the pan and set aside.

Whisk the eggs together in a medium bowl then combine the almond flour, tapioca flour garlic powder, paprika, salt and pepper in a separate medium bowl and mix well. Add the oil to a large frying pan and heat until sizzling and very hot. The oil should be between 325°F and 350°F. Any cooler and the coating won’t stay on the chicken and if it’s too hot the oil will smoke and burn.

Once the oil is hot, using one hand, add a piece of chicken to the flour mixture then dip in the eggs and cover completely. Transfer back to the flour mixture and dredge until a thick coat of flour covers the chicken. Working in batches if necessary, place the chicken in the hot oil and cook until brown on each side and no longer pink in the center—about 3 minutes on each side, or until an internal thermometer reads 165°F. Continue checking the oil temperature and adjusting heat to keep it hot enough once you add the chicken. When each chicken tender is done, transfer to the paper towel lined plate to cool. If you need to do another batch, check the oil for any bits of coating that fell off. If there is a lot, discard oil and bits and heat more oil to avoid the second batch burning. Repeat the process with the next batch. Allow to cool on the paper towel while you make the honey mustard.

To make the honey mustard, whisk all of the ingredients together and serve.
