Ingredients
  

  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 3/4 cup almond flour
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cups crushed pork rinds
  • 1/2 cup shredded or grated Parmesan plus more for serving
  • 2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 T avocado oil
  • 3/4 cup keto marinara sauce
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella
  • Fresh basil for topping
  • Zucchini noodles for serving

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
  • Using a sharp knife, cut chicken breasts in half horizontally. Season chicken on both sides with salt and pepper.
  • In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs with the cream. In a second bowl, place almond flour. In a third bowl, combine pork rinds, Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, and oregano.
  • Dip a chicken piece into the almond flour, then the eggs, and then the pork rind mixture, pressing to coat. Place the chicken on a plate and repeat with the remaining pieces.
  • In a large skillet set over medium heat, heat avocado oil. Working in batches, add the chicken pieces and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden and cooked through.
  • Transfer the fried cutlets to the prepared baking dish. Evenly spread the marinara sauce on each cutlet, then top with mozzarella. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. If desired, broil for 1-3 minutes until the cheese is golden brown.
  • Serve over zucchini noodles, garnished with basil and more Parmesan.
