Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup finely ground almond flour
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil spray or olive oil for greasing and brushing

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment or foil. Lightly grease the surface with olive oil or cooking spray.
  2. Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and set aside.
  3. In a shallow bowl, combine the parmesan cheese, almond flour, minced garlic, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix until evenly combined.
  4. In a separate shallow bowl, add the beaten eggs.
  5. Dip each chicken breast into the eggs, turning to coat and letting any excess drip off.
  6. Press each egg coated chicken breast into the parmesan almond flour mixture, turning and pressing so the coating adheres evenly on all sides.
  7. Arrange the coated chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each piece.
  8. Lightly spray or brush the tops of the chicken with olive oil.
  9. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the coating is golden brown and the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F.
  10. Let the chicken rest on the pan for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

- Pound thick chicken breasts to an even thickness for more consistent cooking.
- For extra crisp edges, place the tray on the upper rack for the last 2 to 3 minutes of baking.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Reheat in a 350°F oven or air fryer until warmed through to keep the coating crisp.
