INGREDIENTS

4.5 oz Chicken breast

1.5 tbsp Almond flour

1 tbsp Grated parmesan cheese

0.25 tsp Garlic powder

0.25 tsp Dried oregano

0.25 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

1 tbsp Whisked egg

2 tsp Extra virgin olive oil

0.25 cup Marinara sauce

0.75 oz Shredded mozzarella cheese

1 tsp Fresh basil

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 is an even half-inch thickness.

• 3

  In a shallow bowl, whisk together the almond flour, grated parmesan, garlic powder, oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 4

  Place the whisked egg in a separate shallow bowl. Dip the chicken into the egg, then dredge it through the almond flour mixture, pressing firmly to ensure the crust adheres.

• 5

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

• 6

  Spoon the marinara sauce over the center of the chicken and sprinkle evenly with the shredded mozzarella.

• 7

  Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is bubbly and melted.

• 8

  Remove from the oven and let rest for 2 minutes before garnishing with thinly sliced fresh basil.
