2/3 cup almond flour – (please see this blog post for almond flour 101)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper
Grab 2 shallow bowls and whisk 1 egg in a bowl then mix the flours and seasonings in another
Gently pat off any excess liquid on the chicken then slice each chicken breast in half so you have 4 total pieces of chicken
Using a fork or clean hands, dip a slice of chicken into the egg, allowing excess to drip off
Dip into the flour mixture and flip to make sure all of the chicken is coated well (make sure you press down so the chicken really gets coated) and add to baking sheet
Repeat for each piece of chicken then add oven for bake for 10 minutes then flip each piece and cook for another 8-10 minutes (or until ready!)
Add to your favorite bun with toppings of your choice. I used some spicy slaw and avocado!

Notes

*Store leftovers in fridge for 5 days or you can freeze the chicken for 2 months
