Ingredients

• 1 package thin-sliced chicken cutlets (about 5)
• Extra virgin olive oil or coconut oil for frying
• 1 cup Italian bread crumb mix (almond flour mix). Mix all ingredients below in a small bowl with a mini-whisk or fork thoroughly. Use immediately or store in an airtight container.
  • 1 cup almond flour/meal
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano

Instructions

1. Spread the cup of seasoned almond flour in a large shallow dish. Dip each cutlet in the almond flour to coat both sides and set aside on a plate.
2. Heat 1-2 tablespoons of the butter (or oil) in a large nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat.
3. Fry the cutlets in batches for a few minutes on each side until the almond flour is browned and chicken is cooked through. Add more butter/oil to the pan as needed.

Serves 5.
