INGREDIENTS

4 oz chicken breast

2 tbsp almond flour

2 tbsp parmesan cheese

0.5 tsp garlic powder

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 large egg

1 tsp extra virgin olive oil

0.5 cup marinara sauce

1 cup broccoli florets

PREPARATION

• 1

  Butterfly the chicken breast or pound it to an even half-inch thickness to ensure even cooking.

• 2

  In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg until smooth. In a second shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 3

  Dip the chicken into the egg wash, letting any excess drip off, then press firmly into the parmesan mixture until evenly coated on both sides.

• 4

  Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5-6 minutes per side until the crust is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

• 5

  While the chicken is cooking, steam the broccoli florets in a steamer basket over boiling water for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.

• 6

  Warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan over low heat until simmering.

• 7

  Plate the crispy chicken, spoon the warm marinara sauce over the top, and serve immediately with the steamed broccoli on the side.
