Ingredients

• 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 cup Almond flour
• 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 large Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Avocado oil (or any keto-friendly oil for frying)

Directions

Step 1

Place the chicken breasts between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound them to an even thickness, about 1/2 inch thick, using a meat mallet.

Step 2

In a shallow bowl, mix together the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until well combined.

Step 4

Dip each chicken breast into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated.

Step 5

Then, dredge the egg-coated chicken in the almond flour mixture, pressing down firmly so that the coating adheres well.

Step 6

Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers.

Step 7

Once the oil is hot, carefully place the coated chicken breasts into the skillet. Fry them for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Step 8

Remove the chicken from the skillet and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Step 9

Serve hot with your choice of keto-friendly sides or salads.
