Another favourite comfort food, but the traditional version is not the healthiest. This ‘healthified’ version tastes just as delicious. I love serving this with my Cauli Rice πŸ™‚

Ingredients

Serves:Β 4

  • 1 cup almond meal
  • zest of 1 lemon
  • 1/3 cup finely chopped mixed herbs (sage, parsley and thyme)
  • 2 tbsp finely grated parmesan
  • 2 free-range or organic eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 tbsp milk of choice
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • Himalayan salt and pepper
  • 2 organic chicken breast fillets, sliced in half lengthways
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Lemon wedges to serve

 

Method

  1. In a large shallow bowl, combine the almond meal, lemon zest, herbs and parmesan.
  2. In a separate large shallow bowl, whisk the egg, milk and garlic, season with salt and pepper.
  3. Dip the chicken into the egg mixture, then coat evenly in the almond mix.
  4. Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium-heat and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until the chicken is lightly golden and cooked through.
  5. Serve with lemon wedges and Cauliflower Rice!
