Ingredients
- 2 pieces chicken breasts
- 0.5 cups almond flour
- 0.25 cups coconut flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoons paprika
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.25 cups olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Slice each chicken breast in half horizontally to create four evenly sized portions. Lightly pound them to ensure even thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin.
Step 3
In a shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form the crumb coating.
Step 4
In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs until smooth.
Step 5
Dip each piece of chicken into the beaten eggs, ensuring a complete coating, and then dredge them in the flour mixture. Press the chicken into the crumb mixture to ensure it adheres well.
Step 6
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the crumbed chicken pieces. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Step 7
Transfer the browned chicken onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your flavorful Paleo Classic Crumbed Chicken with your favorite side dish.
