Place the chicken breasts between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch using a meat mallet.
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture evenly over both sides of the chicken breasts.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, cook the chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165Β°F (75Β°C). Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes.
Preheat the oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour and baking powder. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and melted butter. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until smooth.
Divide the batter into four and shape into thin, round discs on a parchment-lined baking sheet to form the sandwich buns.
Bake for 12-15 minutes until the buns are lightly golden and firm to the touch. Allow to cool slightly.
Assemble the sandwiches by spreading mayonnaise on the inside of each almond flour bun. Layer with lettuce, a piece of grilled chicken, a slice of tomato, and cheddar cheese. Top with the second bun half.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Keto Classic Grilled Chicken Sandwich!
