Keto Sesame Breaded Almond Chicken

You don’t have to miss breaded chicken because this almond breaded chicken tastes better than the real deal. The coating is really simple...first the chicken is dipped into an egg and cream mixture and then it is coated in a sesame seed and almond flour breading. The chicken is baked to a crisp texture and can be served with your favorite low carb vegetables.

    I did this in my air fryer...spritzed the rack and top of the chicken with avocado oil...10 minutes and it was done! And delicious...the best breaded chicken I've had since starting keto!

        The chicken tasted great. Maybe spray oil on the baking sheet.

              Cream is listed. It's mixed with the egg to dip chicken in before it's breaded. Hth.
