INGREDIENTS

5 oz chicken breast

2 tbsp low-fat buttermilk

2 tbsp almond flour

0.5 tsp smoked paprika

0.25 tsp garlic powder

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 medium whole-grain waffle

1 tsp ghee

1 tsp maple syrup

PREPARATION

• 1

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

• 2

  Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and cover with buttermilk, letting it soak for 10 minutes to tenderize.

• 3

  In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, smoked paprika, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 4

  Remove the chicken from the buttermilk and dredge it through the almond flour mixture, pressing firmly to ensure a thick, even crust.

• 5

  Place the coated chicken in the air fryer and cook for 12 to 15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the exterior is golden and the center is cooked.

• 6

  Toast the whole-grain waffle until it is warm and reaches a slightly firm, toasted texture.

• 7

  Set the crispy chicken atop the waffle, add a dollop of ghee, and finish with a light drizzle of maple syrup.
