'Breaded' Chicken Fillets

For those who yearn or just like chicken in breadcrumbs ( or fish for that matter ), this is a simple replacement recipe and works wonders.


Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp coconut flour
  • 1 egg beaten
  • 1 clove garlic crushed
  • zest of 1 lemon
  • 4 Tbsp ground almonds
  • a few sprigs of parsley finely chopped
  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 1 Tbsp coconut oil

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200degC.
  2. Mix the crushed garlic, parsley, lemon zest and ground almonds on a plate.
  3. On another plate put the 2 Tbsp coconut flour.
  4. On a third plate put the beaten egg.
  5.  
  6. Dip a chicken fillet in the flour ensuring all parts are coated. 
  7. Next dip the chicken fillet in the egg ensuring all parts are coated.
  8. Finally dip the chicken in the ground almond mixture ensuring all parts are coated.
  9. In a hot frying pan on high heat melt the coconut oil and flash fry the chicken breasts on each side, for about 2 minutes a side. This seals the coating on the chicken.
  10. Place the fillets in the oven and bake for about 20 minutes or until cooked through.
