Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken tenderloins
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray with cooking spray.
In a shallow bowl, mix together the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs until smooth.
Take each chicken tenderloin, dip into the beaten eggs ensuring they are fully coated.
Transfer the egg-coated chicken tenderloin to the almond flour mixture and press down using your fingers to ensure an even coating, shaking off any excess.
Place the coated chicken tenderloins onto the prepared baking sheet, laying them out in a single layer with space in between each piece.
Lightly spray the tops of the chicken tenderloins with cooking spray to help them crisp up in the oven.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is crispy and cooked through with an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
Enjoy your Keto Crispy Baked Chicken Tenderloins with your favorite keto-friendly dipping sauce or side dish.
