INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Buttermilk
2 tbsp Almond Flour
1/2 tsp Olive Oil (spray)
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, combine the buttermilk, a pinch of salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breast ensuring it is fully submerged in the marinade. Let sit for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
Place the almond flour in a shallow dish. Remove the chicken from the buttermilk marinade, allowing excess to drip off, and then dredge each piece thoroughly in the almond flour until evenly coated.
Place the coated chicken pieces onto the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the chicken with olive oil to help develop a crispy texture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F, turning once halfway through cooking.
Remove from the oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
