Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces chicken breasts
- 0.5 cups almond flour
- 0.25 cups coconut flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoons paprika
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.25 cups olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice each chicken breast in half horizontally to create four evenly sized portions. Lightly pound them to ensure even thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin.
In a shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form the crumb coating.
In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs until smooth.
Dip each piece of chicken into the beaten eggs, ensuring a complete coating, and then dredge them in the flour mixture. Press the chicken into the crumb mixture to ensure it adheres well.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the crumbed chicken pieces. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Transfer the browned chicken onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your flavorful Paleo Classic Crumbed Chicken with your favorite side dish.
