0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

PREPARATION

• 1

  Slice the chicken breast into thick strips and place them in a small bowl with the buttermilk to soak for 10 minutes.

• 2

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

• 3

  Remove each chicken strip from the buttermilk, letting the excess drip off, and dredge thoroughly in the almond flour mixture.

• 4

  Lightly coat the breaded chicken with avocado oil and place in an air fryer basket at 400°F.

• 5

  Cook the chicken for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the exterior is golden-brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

• 6

  While the chicken finishes, toast the whole-grain waffle until it is warm and slightly crisp.

• 7

  Place the toasted waffle on a plate, top with the crispy chicken strips, and finish with a drizzle of pure maple syrup.
