Almond Crusted Chicken

Almond Crusted Chicken

My husband and I are doing Beachbody's newest program The Master's Hammer and Chisel and one of the recipes in the program was this Almond Crusted Chicken. It was suggested to pair it with some mixed veggies so I went for yellow squash and zucchini. I cooked the veggies with olive oil, salt and pepper. I roasted them in the oven for about 30 minutes on 350 degrees. I also made brown rice to go with this dish. I was really excited to try using the almond flour as the breading and we were all very pleasantly surprised with how it turned out! Give this one a try!

Below you will find the recipe for the chicken. 
Ingredients
6 - 4oz chicken breast
1/2 c almond flour
2 garlic cloves finely chopped
1 1/2 tsp. finely grated lemon peel
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 large egg white
1/4 c water
1 tbsp olive oil
3 tsp olive oil 
Directions
-Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
-Place a chicken breast on a cutting board and slice thin and pound it out thin
