PREPARATION

• 1

  Slice the chicken breast into thick strips and submerge them in the buttermilk in a shallow bowl for at least 15 minutes.

  In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the oat flour, egg, almond milk, and baking powder until a smooth waffle batter forms.

  Remove the chicken strips from the buttermilk, dredge them thoroughly in the flour mixture, and mist all sides with avocado oil.

• 6

  Place the chicken in an air fryer basket and cook at 400°F for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the coating is crispy and the meat is cooked through.
