Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or avocado oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound them to an even thickness using a meat mallet.
In a shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs until they are well combined.
Dip each chicken breast into the beaten eggs, ensuring it is fully coated, and allow any excess to drip off.
Then, press the chicken breast into the almond flour mixture, covering both sides completely. Gently shake off any excess coating.
Heat the olive oil or avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the coated chicken breasts and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until they are golden brown.
Transfer the browned chicken breasts to the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, and serve hot. Enjoy your Keto Parmesan Chicken!
