Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (about 1 pound) chicken breast fillets
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your 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, dried oregano, salt, and ground black pepper. Mix well.
In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs thoroughly.
Pat the chicken breast fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Dip each chicken fillet into the beaten eggs, ensuring it is completely covered.
Transfer the egg-coated fillet to the almond flour mixture, pressing it firmly on both sides to adhere the breading.
Place the breaded chicken fillets on the prepared baking sheet.
Drizzle olive oil over the breaded chicken fillets or spray lightly with olive oil spray to enhance crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the breading is golden brown and the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.
Enjoy your low carb crispy breaded chicken fillets with your favorite low carb dipping sauce or salad.
