Ingredients

For Chicken

1 lb chicken feet
1 tsp lard
1 quart water

For BBQ sauce

1/2 cup coconut aminos
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 tsp grated ginger
1/2 tsp rice wine vinegar
2 tsp honey
1 tsp toasted sesame oil
ketchup (paleo, sugar-free)
Pluck Original, to taste

Directions

Step 1 (For the Chicken Feet)

Trim nails from chicken feet. Trim any dark spots and peel any skin, if applicable.

Step 2

Parboil the chicken feet for 5 minutes and drain, discarding water. Add chicken feet to the pan with lard and 3 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then cover and cook on medium heat for 45 minutes. If water cooks down completely, add another cup. When chicken feet are tender, remove the lid and serve, covering with barbeque sauce to taste. Save the remaining liquid from the pan to mix into soups or grains.

Step 1 (For the BBQ Sauce)

Mix the coconut aminos, minced garlic and ginger, rice wine vinegar, honey, toasted sesame oil, and ketchup together in a jar. Whisk well and reserve until needed.
