Start by marinating the chicken. Flatten the chicken breasts slightly and cut each into two pieces. Place them in a bowl and pour the pickle juice over them. Ensure the chicken is well-covered and let them marinate in the fridge for at least an hour.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
To make the biscuits, combine the almond flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and unsweetened almond milk. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter and add it to the wet ingredients.
Mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Divide the dough into 8 equal parts and shape them into biscuits, placing them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown.
While the biscuits are baking, remove the chicken from the pickle juice and pat them dry with paper towels.
Season the chicken with garlic powder, paprika, and a pinch of salt.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and golden brown.
To assemble the chicken biscuits, split the almond flour biscuits in half.
Place a piece of cooked chicken on the bottom half of each biscuit, and top with lettuce leaf and tomato slice. Close the biscuit with the top half.
Serve warm and enjoy your low-carb homemade Chick-fil-A style chicken biscuits!
