Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Step 2: In a shallow bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and 1/4 cup mayonnaise until smooth.
  3. Step 3: In a second shallow bowl, combine 3/4 cup almond flour, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  4. Step 4: Pat dry 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (6 oz each) with paper towels. Dip each breast first into the egg-mayo mixture, coating completely.
  5. Step 5: Dredge each chicken breast in the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere the coating evenly.
  6. Step 6: Place the coated chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle 2 tablespoons olive oil evenly on top.
  7. Step 7: Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the crust is golden and crisp.
  8. Step 8: Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
