Almond crusted chicken
Almond crusted chicken is a delicious dish where chicken breasts are coated with a mixture of crushed almonds, breadcrumbs, and seasonings before being baked or pan-fried to create a crispy, flavorful crust. It's a tasty way to add some extra crunch and nutty flavor to your chicken!
Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts boneless, skinless
- 1 cup sliced almonds
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 eggs beaten
- Olive oil for cooking
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a food processor, pulse the sliced almonds until finely chopped. Mix the chopped almonds with breadcrumbs, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper in a shallow dish.
- Dip each chicken breast in the beaten eggs, then coat them with the almond mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
- Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for 3-4 minutes per side until they are golden brown.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the crust is crispy.
- Serve the almond crusted chicken with your favorite side dishes and enjoy!
