Keto Chicken Parmesan
A delicious and easy-to-cook keto-friendly chicken Parmesan. Enjoy a classic Italian dish with your family and friends.
Ingredients
- 8 onus skinless, boneless chicken breast
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp heavy whipping cream
- ½ onus pork rinds, crushed
- 1 onus grated Parmesan cheese
- ½ tbsp salt
- ½ tbsp garlic powder
- ½ tbsp red pepper flakes (Optional)
- ½ tbsp ground black pepper
- ½ tbsp Italian seasoning
- ½ cup jarred tomato sauce
- ¼ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 tbsp ghee (clarified butter)
Instructions
- Set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the broiler.
- Slice chicken breast through the middle horizontally from one side to within 1/2 inch of the other side. Open the two sides and spread them like an open book, then pound the chicken flat until about 1/2 inch thick.
- Mix egg and cream in a bowl.
- Mix crushed pork rinds, Parmesan cheese, salt, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, ground black pepper, and Italian seasoning in a bowl, then put the bread on a plate.
- Dip chicken into egg mixture, and coat thoroughly. Add chicken into breading; thickly coat both sides of the chicken.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat; add ghee/oil. Place chicken in the pan and cook until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 3 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Be careful to keep breading in place.
- Add the chicken to a baking sheet—cover with tomato sauce and top with mozzarella cheese.
- Broil until cheese is bubbling and barely browned about 2 minutes.
