Now that you’ve had a glimpse of this culinary masterpiece, let’s talk about what you need to whip up this delightful dish. Here are your players for the appetizer: chicken, cheese, and a sprinkle of magic (or seasoning, but we can pretend!).
Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup marinara sauce (sugar-free)
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- Fresh basil for garnish (optional, but isn’t everything better with a touch of green?!)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Get that hot box ready!
- Mix the almond flour, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper in a shallow dish. This will be your fragrant coating mixture—think of it as a comfy spa for our chicken!
- In another bowl, whisk the eggs until they’re fluffy; they’re going to help the coating stick to our stars, the chicken breasts!
- Dip each chicken breast into the egg first, then into the flour-cheese mixture, ensuring they’re generously coated. Remember, your goal is crispy, cheesy goodness!
- Place the coated chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Give them some personal space; they need to breathe!
- Bake in the oven for about 25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and absolutely beautiful.
- Once that’s done, pull them out and slather generously with the marinara sauce and top with mozzarella cheese. It’s like giving your chicken a warm, cheesy blanket!
- Return to the oven and bake for another 10 minutes, until bubbly and golden on top. You want it so golden, your friends will need shades!
- Garnish with fresh basil, if you’re feeling fancy, and serve it up hot!
