Years and years ago, I went to Dream Dinners in my town to create some meals to keep in my freezer. One of the meals was an Almond Chicken that I really liked. It was the only one I could remember all the ingredients to replicate at home. This is my version of it.
Ingredients
1/2 cup sliced almonds, roughly chopped
3/4 cup Panko breadcrumbs (I used keto breadcrumbs that I made as a substitute to keep it keto)
2 eggs, beaten
Salt and pepper, to taste
(Optional: Sweet and sour sauce or use a different seasoning, such as Cajun or Italian)
Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Combine almonds and breadcrumbs in a shallow pan. Place beaten eggs in another shallow pan.
If you are using sweet and sour sauce, you can pour 1/4 cup into the eggs and whisk to combine. If on a keto diet, leave out the sweet and sour sauce and add an alternative seasoning. Coat the chicken with the eggs and dredge in the almond breadcrumb mixture.
Place on a greased cookie sheet. Spray the tops of the chicken breasts with cooking spray. Bake uncovered at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until the tops are golden.
