INGREDIENTS

5 oz chicken breast

2 tbsp buttermilk

2 tbsp almond flour

1 tbsp arrowroot starch

0.5 tsp smoked paprika

0.5 tsp garlic powder

0.5 tsp onion powder

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tsp avocado oil

1 cup green beans

PREPARATION

• 1

  Place the chicken breast between two sheets of parchment paper and pound to an even half-inch thickness.

• 2

  In a shallow bowl, soak the chicken in the buttermilk for at least 15 minutes to tenderize.

• 3

  In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, arrowroot starch, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 4

  Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, letting excess drip off, then dredge thoroughly in the flour mixture, pressing to adhere.

• 5

  Lightly coat the air fryer basket with avocado oil and place the chicken inside, spraying the top of the chicken with the remaining oil.

• 6

  Air fry at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit and the crust is crisp.

• 7

  While the chicken cooks, steam the green beans for 5 minutes until tender-crisp and bright green.

• 8

  Serve the crispy chicken immediately alongside the steamed green beans for a balanced, clean-eating feast.
