Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Chicken breast
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 cup Buttermilk
- 3 units Egg
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 0.25 cup Butter
- 0.25 cup Avocado oil
- 1 teaspoon Sweetener (erythritol or monk fruit)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup almond flour, 2 tablespoons coconut flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
Melt 0.25 cup butter in a small bowl and let it cool slightly.
In a separate bowl, beat 2 eggs and stir in 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese and the melted butter until well combined.
Slowly incorporate the dry flour mixture into the wet ingredients to form the biscuit dough.
Scoop the dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, forming 4 round biscuits.
Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown then set aside to cool.
While baking, slice 2 chicken breasts into four pieces (butterfly each breast and cut through the middle if too thick).
In a bowl, mix 0.5 cup buttermilk and 1 egg. Marinate chicken pieces in this mixture for at least 10 minutes.
Combine 1 cup almond flour, 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder, 0.5 teaspoon onion powder, 0.5 teaspoon paprika, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, and 1 teaspoon sweetener in another bowl.
Heat 0.25 cup avocado oil in a skillet over medium heat. Ensure the oil is hot but not smoking.
Remove chicken pieces from buttermilk, shake off excess, and dredge in the seasoned flour mixture.
Fry chicken pieces in the hot oil, about 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
Place cooked chicken on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Assemble by cutting each biscuit in half and placing a fried chicken piece between the halves.
Serve warm and enjoy your low-carb Chick-fil-A style chicken biscuit!
