Instructions:
1. Prepare the Chicken:
- In a bowl, beat the eggs and season with salt and pepper.
- In another bowl, mix the almond flour and coconut flour.
- Dip each piece of chicken into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off, and then coat it with the flour mixture. Ensure the chicken pieces are evenly coated.

- In a separate pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic, diced onions, and diced bell peppers. Sauté until they become tender.
- Add apple cider vinegar, low-carb ketchup, soy sauce (or coconut aminos), sweetener, and water to the pan. Stir well.
- Simmer the sauce for about 5-7 minutes until it thickens and the flavors meld.
4. Combine and Serve:
- Add the fried chicken pieces to the sweet and sour sauce. Stir to coat the chicken evenly with the sauce.
- Serve your Keto Sweet and Sour Chicken over cauliflower rice or with steamed broccoli if desired.
