Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Olive oil or avocado oil
Directions
Step 1
Place the chicken breasts between two pieces of plastic wrap. Using a meat mallet, pound them to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch.
Step 2
In a shallow dish, mix together the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Step 3
In another shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until well combined.
Step 4
Dip each chicken breast in the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated, then dredge it in the almond flour mixture, pressing lightly to ensure the coating sticks.
Step 5
Heat the olive oil or avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Step 6
Once the oil is hot, add the chicken cutlets, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Cook in batches if necessary.
Step 7
Fry the chicken for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through to an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
Step 8
Transfer the cooked chicken to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Step 9
Serve the Keto Crispy Fried Chicken Cutlets hot with your favorite keto-friendly dipping sauce or alongside a fresh salad.
