INGREDIENTS

5 oz chicken breast

0.25 cup low-fat buttermilk

2 tbsp almond flour

1 tbsp arrowroot starch

0.5 tsp garlic powder

0.5 tsp onion powder

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 medium whole grain waffle

1 tbsp pure maple syrup

1 tsp avocado oil

PREPARATION

• 1

  Place the chicken breast in a shallow bowl and pour the buttermilk over it, letting it marinate for at least 15 minutes to tenderize.

• 2

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

• 3

  Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off, then dredge thoroughly in the flour mixture until evenly coated.

• 4

  Preheat your air fryer to 400°F and lightly spray the basket with half of the avocado oil.

• 5

  Place the chicken in the air fryer and spray the top with the remaining avocado oil; cook for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway, until the crust is golden and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

• 6

  While the chicken cooks, toast the whole grain waffle until it is warm and slightly firm.

• 7

  Place the toasted waffle on a plate, top with the crispy chicken breast, and finish with a drizzle of pure maple syrup.
