Instructions
- Preheat Oven to 350 degrees.
- Combine almond flour, parmesan cheese, onion mix, garlic powder, oregano, and red pepper flakes in a food processor to make your “bread-less crumbs.”
- Whisk together the egg and egg whites. Dip the chicken breasts in the egg mixture and then in breadless crumbs. Set chicken in a baking dish (coat with olive oil to avoid sticking.)
- Bake at 350° for about 25 to 30 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink. (Flip he breasts about half way through so the chicken is cooked evenly on both sides.)
- While the chicken is cooking you can prepare your tomato sauce (see recipe) if you are not using jarred sauce.
- After the chicken is cooked add a tablespoon of sauce to each chicken breast and top with a small handful of the mozzarella cheese and a couple pieces of thinly shaved parmesan.
- Return to the over and cook for an additional 10 min.
Recipe Notes
- Serve with Quinoa Pasta, sautéed spinach, or any other vegetable or salad of your choosing.
- Enjoy!
