A healthier take on the classic Chicken Parmesan, featuring juicy chicken breasts with a crunchy almond flour coating and topped with marinara and mozzarella.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup marinara sauce (sugar-free)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Fresh basil for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Mix almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper in a shallow bowl until well combined.
  3. Beat the egg in a separate shallow bowl until frothy.
  4. Dip each chicken breast in the egg, allowing excess to drip off, then coat in the almond flour mixture.
  5. Arrange the coated chicken breasts on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown.
  7. Remove from the oven and generously smother each chicken breast with sugar-free marinara sauce.
  8. Top with shredded mozzarella cheese.
  9. Return to the oven for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling and melted.
  10. Garnish with fresh basil if desired, slice, and serve hot!

Notes

For best results, pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness for uniform cooking. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
