Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces chicken tenders
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.5 cup parmesan cheese
- 2 large egg
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 pieces keto sandwich buns
- 0.25 cup mayonnaise
- 4 pieces lettuce leaves
- 1 medium tomato
- 8 slices pickle slices
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow bowl, combine almond flour, grated parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs until smooth.
Dip each chicken tender into the egg mixture, allowing the excess to drip off, then coat with the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Place the coated chicken tenders on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
While the chicken is baking, prepare the sandwich. Slice the tomato into rounds.
Toast the keto buns if desired. Spread mayonnaise on each side of the buns.
Layer lettuce leaves, sliced tomato, and pickle slices on the bottom half of each bun.
Once the chicken tenders are baked, place two tenders on each prepared bun.
Top with the other half of the bun and serve immediately.
