Chicken Tenders
Crispy chicken tenders with a lmond flour breading that are ready in about 45 minutes!
Ingredients
- 1 # chicken breasts
- 1 egg
- ¾ cup almond flour
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and line a baking tray with parchment paper
- Slice the chicken breasts into ¼ inch thick strips. You should end up with 12-15 strips depending on the size of the chicken breasts
- In a small dish, beat the egg until the egg white and yolk are well mixed. In another dish (I typically use a dinner plate) add the almond flour, oregano, salt and black pepper and mix
- With one hand dip a chicken tender into the egg mixture and then place in the almond flour mixture. With the other hand, dip the chicken tender into the breading making sure to evenly coat the chicken. Using one hand for the egg dip and the other for the breading will prevent your hands from getting coated in breading. Once dipped in the breading, place on the baking tray
- Continue with the remaining chicken tenders. Make sure the chicken strips are not touching. Place the tray into the oven and bake for 30 minutes. The chicken tenders will start to get a little wet as the chicken cooks, but then the breading will get crispy. Once the edges are brown, flip the chicken tenders over and bake for another 10-15 minutes or until they are brown and crispy.
- Once baked, remove from the oven and serve with your favorite dipping sauce or allow to cool before placing on a salad. Enjoy!
