INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
2 tablespoons Almond Meal
1 large Egg
1/2 teaspoon Paprika
1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
Olive Oil Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pat the chicken breast dry and lightly pound it to even thickness for uniform cooking.
In a shallow dish, whisk the egg until smooth. In another dish, combine almond meal, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Dip each chicken breast in the egg, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat thoroughly in the almond meal mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray the top with olive oil cooking spray.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the crust is golden and crispy.
Allow to rest for a few minutes before serving.
