INGREDIENTS

5 oz chicken breast

2 tbsp almond flour

1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

1 large egg white

0.5 cup marinara sauce

0.5 oz part-skim mozzarella cheese

1 tsp extra virgin olive oil

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.25 tsp garlic powder

0.25 tsp dried oregano

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

• 2

  Place the chicken breast between two sheets of parchment paper and pound with a meat mallet until it reaches an even half-inch thickness.

• 3

  In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg white until it becomes slightly frothy.

• 4

  In a separate shallow dish, combine the almond flour, grated parmesan, sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and dried oregano to create the breading mixture.

• 5

  Dip the chicken breast into the egg white, ensuring it is fully coated, then dredge it through the almond flour mixture, pressing firmly to adhere the crust to both sides.

• 6

  Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a medium oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering.

• 7

  Add the chicken to the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes per side until the crust is a deep golden brown and crispy.

• 8

  Spread the marinara sauce evenly over the top of the chicken and sprinkle with the mozzarella cheese.

• 9

  Transfer the skillet into the oven and bake for 5-8 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
