Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large (about 8 oz) Chicken breast
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 large Egg
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tablespoons, melted Butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup, shredded Cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 2 leaves Lettuce
- 1 small, sliced Tomato
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, mix together almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the egg, almond milk, and melted butter, stirring until fully combined. Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese to form a dough.
Divide the dough into four equal portions and shape each into a round, flat biscuit. Place the biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
While the biscuits are baking, prepare the chicken. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Season the chicken breast with garlic powder, black pepper, and a pinch of salt.
Add the chicken breast to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and no longer pink in the center. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
To assemble the sandwiches, cut each biscuit horizontally in half. Spread mayonnaise on the bottom half of each biscuit.
Layer lettuce, sliced chicken, and tomato on each biscuit bottom. Top with the other biscuit half.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-carb chicken biscuit sandwich!
