Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 8 slices Thinly sliced ham
- 4 slices Swiss cheese
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Carefully butterfly each chicken breast by slicing it horizontally, leaving one side intact to create a pocket.
Step 3
Place two slices of ham and one slice of Swiss cheese inside each chicken breast. Fold the chicken breast over to enclose the filling.
Step 4
In a shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Step 5
In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs.
Step 6
Dip each filled chicken breast first in the beaten eggs to coat, then in the almond flour mixture, ensuring it's fully covered.
Step 7
In a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat, heat the butter and olive oil.
Step 8
Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Step 9
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
Step 10
Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving. Slice and enjoy your Keto Chicken Cordon Bleu.
