Healthy Almond Crusted Chicken - Low Carb Meal


Healthy Almond Crusted Chicken – Low Carb Meal

I’ve been getting some emails about how does a man like you cook…just kidding. But seriously this is an easy and fun alternative, the recipe is below.
Ingredients

* 1-cup raw almonds
* 1 1/2 teaspoons spices i.e. pepper/paprika/garlic/onion/(salt …I don’t do salt)
* 2 teaspoons of parm cheese and flour
* 2 large eggs whites
* 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 6 ounces each)
* Spray olive oil
* Salad /tomatoes

Directions

Finely chop the almonds in a mini-chopper or food processor. Transfer the nuts to a shallow dish and stir in the spices, parm. and flour. Lightly whisk the egg whites in another shallow dish. Pat the chicken dry and season both sides with salt and pepper. Whisk egg whites in a second shallow dish. (I added a couple of teaspoons of warm water) Add chicken tenders and turn to coat. Transfer each piece to the almond mixture; turn to coat evenly. (Discard any remaining egg white and almond mixture.) Place the coated chicken on the prepared rack and coat with cooking spray; turn and spray the other side.
Bake the chicken until golden brown, crispy and no longer pink in the center, 20 to 25 min
Note: Some of my almonds fell off so make sure you chop/process or blend to a semi fine consistency.
Slice thinly and use on salad for the week or have ready for an easy snack.
