Ingredients You Need

Preheat oven to 450° F and line large baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat. Cut each chicken breast in half lengthwise. You should end up with 8 thin chicken cutlets.

1. 

In a large shallow bowl, combine almond flour, Parmesan cheese, oregano, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Stir with a fork

2. 

Dip each cutlet into breading on both sides by pressing on it and repeating one more time (so breading sticks better).

3. 

Place on a baking sheet. Spray with cooking spray and bake for 25 minutes. Then broil at 500° F until golden brown, about 5 minutes.

4. 

Remove from the oven, top each cutlet with 2 tbsp marinara sauce and sprinkle with 2 tbsp cheese. Bake for another 5 minutes or until cheese has melted at 450° F.

5. 

Serve over whole wheat spaghetti, fettuccine or zucchini noodles. Chicken parmesan also goes well with lettuce salad.

6. 

Store

Refrigerate in an airtight container for 2 days. Reheat in 15 second intervals in the microwave or bake until warm.
