Chicken Skin Chips – GAPS Approved

One of the absolutely best no carbs treats is chicken skin chips. They are satiating and satisfying, crushing any craving. Making crispy chicken skins is quick and easy, and renders schmaltz, chicken fat which can be used further while cooking vegetables or frying eggs. Finding chicken skins is the hardest part of this recipe, however, once a source is found, heaven awaits. Pastured chickens are the best source and can usually be found from a farmer who processes chicken. 

To make chicken skin chips, place the skins flat on a cookie sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, garlic powder or paprika, too, if you like. Place the pan in a preheated oven at 450 degrees and cook for 40 minutes or until the desired crispyness. The chips will firm up a bit once removed from the oven. In Hebrew, chicken skin chips are called Gribenes.
