Ingredients

• 2 pieces Chicken breast, boneless and skinless
• 1 cup Dill pickle juice
• 1 cup Almond flour
• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 large Egg
• 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 cup Coconut oil or Avocado oil
• 2 Keto-friendly hamburger buns
• 2 cups Lettuce leaves
• 1 medium Tomato, sliced

Directions

Step 1

Slice the chicken breasts horizontally to create four thinner cutlets.

Step 2

In a bowl or sealable bag, combine chicken cutlets with the pickle juice. Marinate the chicken in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best flavor.

Step 3

In a shallow dish, mix almond flour and grated Parmesan cheese with paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

In another dish, beat the egg and mix with heavy cream.

Step 5

Remove the chicken from the marinade and pat dry with paper towels.

Step 6

Dip each piece of chicken first in the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off, then dredge in the almond flour mixture, pressing to adhere the coating.

Step 7

Heat the coconut or avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 8

Fry the chicken pieces in batches if necessary, placing them gently into the hot oil. Cook for about 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 9

While the chicken cooks, prepare your keto buns by slicing them in half. Toast lightly if desired.

Step 10

Assemble each sandwich by layering a piece of fried chicken on the bottom half of a bun, topping with lettuce, tomato slices, and then the top bun.

Step 11

Serve immediately and enjoy your Keto Homemade Chick-fil-A Style Chicken Sandwich!
