Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium pieces Chicken breast
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 0.25 cup Avocado oil
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise (sugar-free)
- 1.5 tablespoons Sriracha
- 4 slices Pickles
- 2 leaves Lettuce
- 4 pieces Cloud bread
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Start by preparing the chicken. Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness to ensure even cooking.
In a shallow bowl, mix almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
In another bowl, whisk the eggs and heavy cream together.
Dip each chicken breast into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated, and then dredge it in the almond flour mixture. Press the coating firmly onto the chicken for a crispy texture.
Heat the avocado oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, fry the chicken breasts for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Transfer the chicken to a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil.
While the chicken rests, prepare the spicy mayo by mixing sugar-free mayonnaise and Sriracha in a small bowl. Adjust the spice level to taste.
Assemble the sandwich by placing one piece of cloud bread on a plate. Add a lettuce leaf, a fried chicken breast, two pickle slices, a generous dollop of spicy mayo, and top with another piece of cloud bread. Repeat for the second sandwich.
Serve immediately and enjoy your keto-friendly spicy chicken sandwich!
