Slice the chicken breast into even strips or nuggets.
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the almond flour, sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Dredge each piece of chicken in the flour mixture, pressing firmly so the coating adheres well.
Lightly coat the chicken with avocado oil and place in the air fryer basket at 400°F.
Cook for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is golden and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
While the chicken cooks, toast the whole grain waffle until warm and slightly crisp.
In a small bowl, toss the fresh arugula with lemon juice to create a bright side salad.
Place the toasted waffle on a plate, spread with ghee, and top with the crispy chicken strips.
Finish with a drizzle of sugar-free maple syrup and serve immediately with the arugula.
