plate of asparagus fries

This keto side dish will be loved by all!

Need a healthy alternative to those crispy french fries? In addition to these delicious keto jicama fries, you’ve got to try making parmesan asparagus fries! They are crisped to perfection right from the oven in under 15 minutes, and are sure to hit the spot.

What creates the “breading”? Pork rinds and parmesan! By using crushed up pork rinds, you’ll get that crunchy texture you’ve been missing. After trying out a couple of different methods, I also realized coating the asparagus in an egg wash really makes the parmesan mixture stick.

Hip Tips:

    • For thicker breading, repeat steps five and six to get a double coat.
    • For crispier breading, turn on the broiler for 1 to 2 minutes to really give the fries a crunch.
    • You can even use the air fryer for this recipe. Lay the stalks in a single layer at 400° for 7 minutes.
