Oven-Baked Crispy Almond-Crusted Chicken
Enjoy a crunchy twist on classic baked chicken with an almond crust that offers a delightful nutty flavor and crisp texture. This dish pairs succulent chicken breast with a delicate almond coating, perfectly seasoned and baked to golden perfection.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Almond Meal
1 Large Egg
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1/4 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Black Pepper
2 sprays Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Pound the chicken breast slightly to ensure even thickness for uniform cooking.
In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg. In another bowl, mix the almond meal with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Dip each piece of chicken in the egg, letting any excess drip off, then press into the almond meal mixture until fully coated.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray the top with olive oil to enhance crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the crust is golden brown.
Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving to retain its juices.
