INGREDIENTS

5 oz chicken breast

2 tbsp low-fat buttermilk

2 tbsp almond flour

0.25 tsp smoked paprika

0.25 tsp garlic powder

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 medium whole-grain waffle

1 tbsp maple syrup

1 tsp avocado oil

PREPARATION

• 1

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

• 2

  Slice the chicken breast into thick strips and place them in a small bowl with the buttermilk to coat.

• 3

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

• 4

  Dredge each buttermilk-soaked chicken strip into the almond flour mixture, pressing firmly to ensure a thick, even coating on all sides.

• 5

  Arrange the chicken in a single layer in the air fryer basket and cook for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the exterior is golden and crispy.

• 6

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

• 7

  Place the crispy chicken strips atop the toasted waffle and finish the dish with a drizzle of maple syrup.
