WHAT YOU NEED FOR PARMESAN CRUSTED CHICKEN<\/h3>\n

PARMESAN CHEESE<\/b>:<\/strong> Use fresh grated or store-bought shredded parmesan. Please, for the love of all things tasty, do not use the tinned grated parmesan (aka powdery sand). You need fresh cheese that will melt onto your chicken. Don’t feel like shredding it yourself? Use a food processor and it’s done in seconds.<\/p>\n

ALMOND FLOUR<\/b>:<\/strong>\u00a0Not to be confused with almond meal (the grainy brown stuff), almond flour is super fine and pale yellow. It helps coat the chicken where the parmesan cheese won’t cover. A great low-carb alternative to breadcrumbs.<\/p>\n

You can<\/em>\u00a0SUBSTITUTE<\/strong> with crushed pork rinds or just extra parmesan cheese if you have a nut allergy!<\/p>\n

CHICKEN<\/b>:<\/strong> Use boneless, skinless chicken breasts OR chicken thighs for this parmesan crusted chicken recipe. If using thighs, you will need to pound your fillets to 1\/2-inch thickness and make sure the surface on both sides is flat. Thighs will also require longer to cook (about 7-8 minutes each side), whereas chicken breasts cook faster.<\/p>\n
