This almond flour breaded chicken is amazing! So easy to make, perfectly browned on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside! If you are on a low-carb or gluten-free diet, almond flour breaded chicken to the rescue!
If the chicken breasts are thicker than 1 inch, either pound them to a 1-inch thickness or slice them into 2 thin layers.
Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat.
Whisk the egg in a bowl. Put almond flour on a plate.
Dip the chicken in egg on both sides, then dip in almond flour on both sides, pressing into the flour so it sticks to the chicken.
Put the chicken on a frying pan in a single layer. Sprinkle with 1/3 tsp of salt and 1/8 tsp of pepper. Let the chicken cook undisturbed for 4 minutes (or until golden-brown on the bottom), then carefully flip the chicken over with a spatula and sprinkle with remaining 1/3 tsp of salt and 1/8 tsp of pepper.
Cook the chicken for 4 more minutes or until cooked through (uniformly white in the middle when cut).
