INGREDIENTS

4.5 oz Chicken breast

1 large Egg

1.5 tbsp Almond flour

2 tbsp Parmesan cheese

0.25 tsp Dried oregano

0.25 tsp Garlic powder

0.25 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

2 tsp Olive oil

0.5 cup Marinara sauce

0.5 oz Mozzarella cheese

1 tbsp Fresh parsley

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

• 2

  Place the chicken breast between two sheets of parchment paper and pound to an even half-inch thickness, or butterfly it carefully with a sharp knife.

• 3

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

• 4

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

• 5

  Heat the olive oil in a medium oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the chicken and sear for 3-4 minutes per side until the crust is golden brown and crispy.

• 6

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

• 7

  Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the cheese is bubbly and melted.

• 8

  Remove from the oven and let rest for 2 minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
