Mod de preparare

Pas cu pas

  1. 1

    If your chicken breasts are thick, slice them horizontally to create thinner cutlets, about 1/2-inch thick. You should have 4-.

    Aproximativ 5 min.

    Nota bucătarului: Pounding the chicken slightly can also help tenderize it and ensure even cooking.

  2. 2

    In a shallow dish, whisk the eggs until well combined.

    Aproximativ 1 min.

  3. 3

    In another shallow dish, combine the almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to mix the spices evenly.

    Aproximativ 2 min.

  4. 4

    Dip each chicken cutlet into the beaten egg, allowing any excess to drip off.

  5. 5

    Transfer the egg-dipped chicken to the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to ensure the flour adheres to all sides. Set the crusted chicken aside on a clean plate.

    Aproximativ 10 min.

    Nota bucătarului: Make sure the chicken is fully coated for a crispy crust.

  6. 6

    Heat avocado oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.

    Aproximativ 2 min.

    Nota bucătarului: Ensure the oil is hot but not smoking before adding the chicken.

  7. 7

    Carefully place the crusted chicken cutlets into the hot skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Cook in batches if necessary.

  8. 8

    Cook for 4-6 minutes per side, or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

    Aproximativ 16 min.

    Nota bucătarului: Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning the almond crust.

  9. 9

    Remove the cooked chicken from the skillet and place on a wire rack to rest for a few minutes before serving.

    Aproximativ 2 min.

    Nota bucătarului: Resting helps keep the chicken juicy.
