INGREDIENTS

4.5 oz Chicken breast

1 large Egg

2 tbsp Almond flour

2 tbsp Parmesan cheese

0.5 tsp Garlic powder

0.5 tsp Dried oregano

0.25 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

0.5 cup Marinara sauce

0.75 oz Mozzarella cheese

1 tsp Olive oil

1 tbsp Fresh basil

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

• 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 until smooth; in a separate shallow dish, combine the almond flour, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper.

• 4

  Dip the chicken breast into the egg wash, shaking off any excess, then press firmly into the almond flour mixture to create a thick, even coating.

• 5

  Heat the olive oil in a medium oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 2-3 minutes per side until the crust is golden brown.

• 6

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

• 7

  Place the skillet into the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the cheese is bubbly.

• 8

  Remove from the oven and let rest for 2 minutes before garnishing with freshly chopped basil and serving.
