INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Almond Flour
1/2 cup Pineapple Chunks
1/2 cup Red Bell Pepper, chopped
1 tbsp Tomato Paste
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tsp Ginger, grated
1 tbsp Rice Vinegar
Salt, Pepper & Red Chili Flakes to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pat the chicken breast dry. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of red chili flakes.
Dredge the chicken in almond flour, ensuring an even coating on all sides.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the almond flour crust is lightly crisp.
While the chicken is baking, prepare the sweet and sour sauce. In a small saucepan, combine pineapple chunks, chopped red bell pepper, tomato paste, minced garlic, grated ginger, and rice vinegar.
Simmer the sauce over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until the flavors meld and the sauce thickens slightly.
Once the chicken is done, remove it from the oven and drizzle or toss with the warm sweet and sour sauce.
Serve immediately and enjoy your crispy baked sweet and sour chicken!
