INGREDIENTS

5 oz Chicken breast

0.25 cup Low-fat buttermilk

2 tbsp Almond flour

1 tbsp Arrowroot starch

0.5 tsp Smoked paprika

0.25 tsp Garlic powder

0.25 tsp Onion powder

0.25 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

1 medium Whole-grain waffle

1 tsp Avocado oil

1 tbsp Pure maple syrup

0.25 tsp Red pepper flakes

PREPARATION

• 1

  Slice the chicken breast into even strips and submerge them in a bowl with the low-fat buttermilk to marinate for at least 15 minutes.

• 2

  In a shallow dish, whisk together the almond flour, arrowroot starch, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 3

  Remove each chicken strip from the buttermilk, letting the excess drip off, then dredge thoroughly in the flour mixture until fully coated.

• 4

  Lightly coat the air fryer basket with avocado oil, place the chicken inside without crowding, and spray the tops of the strips with the remaining oil.

• 5

  Air fry at 400°F for 10 to 12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the coating is golden and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

• 6

  Toast the whole-grain waffle until crisp, then top with the hot chicken strips and a drizzle of maple syrup mixed with red pepper flakes.
