Ingredients

4 oz Chicken Breast I made 8 breasts
1/2 c almond flour
2 garlic cloves finely chopped
1-1/2 tsp finely grated lemon peel
1/2 tsp salt adjust for personal taste
1/2 tsp pepper I like a bit more spice, so add less if you do not
1 large egg white
1/4 c water
1 tbsp olive olive

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Use a cutting board to slice chicken to thin pieces (I just sliced the thicker pieces long ways). Combine and mix the almond flour, garlic, lemon peel, salt and pepper in a bowl. Next, combine and then whisk the egg white and water. Dip the chicken in the egg/water, then coat in the flour mix. In a pan, heat the olive oil on medium heat. Place the chicken in the pan and cook for 3-5 minutes. Make sure both sides are browned. Place the chicken in a baking dish and bake for 10-15 minutes. You may need longer if your chicken is thicker. Always check the center to be sure it is cooked completely.
