Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces, approximately 1-inch cubes.
In a shallow bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth.
In another shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes. Mix well.
Dip each piece of chicken into the eggs, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat it in the almond flour mixture. Ensure each piece is thoroughly coated and place it on the prepared baking sheet.
Once all the chicken pieces are coated, drizzle olive oil evenly over them.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then flip each piece of chicken and continue baking for an additional 10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crispy.
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly. Serve warm as a snack or alongside your favorite Whole30-approved dipping sauce or salad.
