Crispy Parmesan Crusted Chicken

Ingredients

1 lb. chicken breasts (2-3 breasts)

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

½ teaspoon garlic powder

1 cup grated or zested parmesan cheese

½ cup almond flour

2 eggs

3 Tbsp olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

 

Instructions

1. Lay the chicken breasts out on a cutting board and cut in half horizontally. Generously season with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper; set aside.

2. Combine the parmesan cheese and almond flour in a medium shallow bowl. In another bowl, whisk the eggs.

3. Dip the chicken breasts into the egg mixture then into the parmesan mixture. Shake off the excess breading. Repeat until all the chicken cutlets are covered.

4. Heat oil in a large, non-stick heavy duty pan. Add chicken cutlets in a single layer and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, until golden and crispy. Be sure not to flip until the parmesan is golden on the first side or it will slide off. Repeat with remaining chicken cutlets.

5. Serve warm and enjoy!
